dependencies for building R
Hi Tom, As I maintain a few packages on CRAN, The Rules say I should build them with an up to the minute version of R. Whenever I have installed R from a repo, it always seems to be a few versions behind. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks. Jim

sudo dnf --enablerepo="*-source" builddep R This will look at the Fedora R source package (from the Fedora source repositories, normally disabled) and install all the BuildRequires it specifies. I can't remember off hand if the "builddep" plug-in automatically enables the source repos these days, so that bit might be a no-op, but it's not harmful. ~spot P.S. I assume you have a solid reason to build your own, but if you would like to see changes to the Fedora R package, my inbox is always open. :) On Fri, Jan 7, 2022, 12:42 AM Jim Lemon <drjimlemon at gmail.com> wrote:
Hi, I am once again trying to install the necessary dependencies for building R on a new installation of Fedora 35. Is there any easier way to do this than running ./configure many times and plugging the holes one by one? Jim
