I am having problem installing rmr2 on centos, yum command by default installs R version 2.15, and rmr2 is dependent on Rcpp library which is only compatible with R 3.0 or later. This is my os version :

$ uname -or
2.6.18-348.16.1.el5 GNU/Linux

$ lsb_release -irc
Distributor ID: CentOS
Release:        5.9
Codename:       Final

install.packages('Rcpp') return ERROR: this R is version 2.15.2, package 'Rcpp' requires R >= 3.0.0. I am not able to find R 3.0 for centos on their download page

yum install R returns :

Setting up Install Process
Package R-2.15.2-1.el5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

  • that have http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/redhat/el5/x86_64/ R-2.10.0-2.el5.x86_64.rpm, those files arent updated since 2009, so I am not sure they have R 3.0 for centos. – bigData Dec 09 '13 at 22:56

  • The last link suggests: `su -c 'rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm'; sudo yum update; sudo yum install R` for El5/CentOS 5 – Ben Bolker Dec 09 '13 at 22:57
