Hi Team,
I am using RedHat 5 and installed R using YUM, (R version 3.2.3) Now I
want to update R version tp 3.3.0, but I am unable to do that, Is
there any alternate to do this?
Hope to hear from your side.

You don't say what the problem is, but I'm running Scientific Linux 6.7,
which is based on the corresponding version of Red Hat, and have found
that I cannot install R 3.3.0, because the version of zlib available is
too old. R 3.3.0 requires zlib >= 1.2.5, whereas the version in the SL
repositories is 1.2.3.
So if this is the problem, then you either have to install newer version
of zlib from source or switch to RH7, which comes with zlib 1.2.7.
I forgot to say that for RH7, R 3.3.0 is available from the EPEL
repository, whereas for RH5 or RH6 you will have to install R from
source.
