similar to: Installing from RPM on Red Hat 9

Dear Peter, I don't know if this is the proper way to ask for help installing R, but if not, I presume you can pass this on to the appropriate place. I'm trying to install the latest binary on Redhat 9, and keep getting the same error message no matter what I try. [root at localhost mhu]# rpm -i R-1.7.1-1.i386.rpm warning: R-1.7.1-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID

Hi, I'm having problems with a R Redhat Linux install. Please bear with me, I've only been working with Linux for about a week here. I have Redhat Linux 9 running on a recent Pentium machine. Here's the install, showing I'm running kernel release 2.4.20-6. [root at localhost root]# uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.4.20-6 #1 Thu Feb 27 10:06:59 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386

I've just installed Redhat 8.0 + latest updates on a Intel PC and am trying to install the R 1.6.1-2 rpm but get the following: # rpm -i R-1.6.1-2.i386.rpm warning: R-1.6.1-2.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 97d3544e error: Failed dependencies: libtcl.so.0 is needed by R-1.6.1-2 libtk.so.0 is needed by R-1.6.1-2 What am I missing?

Dear list, I cannot load the tcltk library: > library(tcltk) Loading Tcl/Tk interface ...

Dear R-Community, I need the Img tk extension for my R package. It all works on my Ubuntu machine (libtk-img). However I experience a great deal of trouble when I try to install the package on OSX 10.5 or 10.6 (in fact I'm not able to do it). As I understand it, the ActiveTcl with it's teacup package manager do not have an effect on the the x11 tcl installation which R accesses. MacPorts

Hi, I've been trying to install R on Red Hat Linux 9 for some potential users of my R/TclTk application. I tried using the rpm for R 1.7.1 for Red Hat Linux 9. It told me that I needed: libtcl8.3.so so I looked for a binary release of Tcl 8.3.x on http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.3.html but found that the link to the Tcl 8.3.x binaries pointed to ActiveTcl 8.4.x . I couldn't see

Hi All, I have tried several times to run this library and I get the following message: > library(tcltk) Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) : invalid command name "tcl_findLibrary" Error in library(tcltk) : .First.lib failed > I have checked either the tcl and tk libraries and they are correctly installed (/usr/lib/).

I've just added this section to the ReadMe file that accompanies the Red Hat 9 RPMS. I hope this will save people some trouble in the future. Martyn Requirements ------------ Some people have experienced problems satisfying the dependencies of the R RPM. Here is a complete list of requirements, the RPMS that provide them and where to find them on the 3-disk install set. Requirement

Hi, The libtk8.3 dependencies in the R-1.9.0 rpm generate apt conflicts after an upgrade from Fedora Core 1 to Fedora core 2. In trying to rebuild the rpm from the source rpm provided on CRAN, the build fails when it comes time to compile src/modules/X11/dataentry.c you get many errors of the form : > In file included from dataentry.c:34: > /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h:1400: error:

Hello: I have a new install of Ubuntu 12.04. I have tried to install R via source, apt-get, and the deb packages from a cran mirror. Each of these had issues. I followed the secure apt key install. The apt-get and deb installs each have the same error. So, let's ignore the source install for now. This is the error: >> sudo dpkg -i r-base-core_2.15.1-1precise2_i386.deb (Reading

Dear developeRs, I use Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 (Nahant Update 2) on an x86_64 machine (two Intel P4 CPUs with 64 bit support), and R-beta_2005-12-12_r36712.tar.gz.

In trying to run John Fox's new Rcmdr package on Redhat Linux 9, I got this error message. The problem is in loading the tclck library. library(tcltk) produces the same error. It has been discussed before, e.g., http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02/archive/11898.html but with respect to earlier versions of Linux and R. I tried updating to the latest RPMs of tcl and tk (8.3.5-89), but that

Hi, Since I''ve installed ruby and ruby-gems from source, then installed facter and puppet as gems, I don''t get the usual startup scripts shipped with RPMs. Rebuilding the ruby RPM is painful, mostly because Red Hat (and pretty much every vendor) have this tendency to include random files and patch the living daylights out of a perfectly good source package so that converting
