The issue shows when installing some packages. I was interested in using
"gplots" so i ran:
install.packages("gplots", dependencies=TRUE)
and the outcome was something like this:
Aviso en install.packages("gplots", dependencies = TRUE) :

In install.packages("gplots", dependencies = TRUE) :
installation of package 'gplots' had non-zero exit status
What should i do? Is there an equivalent package?
Do as the error message said:
Error : package 'gtools' was built before R 2.10.0: please re-install it
