On Ubuntu, that probably means

Hi I just upgraded my R from stabel/etch from 2.4.x to 2.6.2 via sudo apt-get install r-base which worked fine, installing all dependencies From R, as root, I did update.packages() but a number of packages packages failed to install, either for missing gfortran or missing dependencies. Warning messages: 1: In install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, contriburl =

Hi Duncan, Thanks for the suggestions. How do I uninstall mesa related installations? Do I need to uninstall all of "mesa" or only the specific ones?

Hello Im trying to install package rgl in a freshly installed Ubuntu 8.04 system. I have a problem (actually is has been reported three times on the R-list but the answers were too complicated for me) when installing: configure: using libpng dynamic linkage checking for X... no configure: error: X11 not found but required, configure aborted. ERROR: configuration failed for package 'rgl'

I tried installing "rgl" package which is needed for Rcmdr to work properly but I always some problem. This is the error I get ......... checking for libpng-config... yes configure: using libpng-config configure: using libpng dynamic linkage checking for X... libraries , headers  checking GL/gl.h usability... yes checking GL/gl.h presence... yes checking for GL/gl.h... yes checking

*Summary*: The latest Windows binary version of rgl_081.708 from R-Forge has some problem that causes rgl.snapshot() to fail, at least on my system. Thereafter, *all* rgl 3D graphics are rendered without any text labels. The last problem remains even after (a) removing rgl and re-installing from CRAN, (b) re-starting with a fresh installation of all of R 2.7.2. *System*: Win XP Pro A vexing

Thank you for your work on rgl. Reading in another thread about your new (inofficial) version of rgl (see below) I tried it with R version 2.5.0 alpha (2007-03-31 r40986) under FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT. Unfortunately I got the following error: ------- #R CMD INSTALL rgl_0.70.570.tar.gz * Installing to library '/usr/local/lib/R/library' * Installing *source* package 'rgl' ...

Dear R users, I have installed the latest version of R from source on Centos (using configure and make install). This seemed to work fine, with no Errors reported and R at the command line starts R. However, if I try and installed the package rgl using; install.packages("rgl") I get the following error; installing to /usr/local/lib64/R/library/rgl/libs ** R ** demo ** inst ** preparing
