I got error when installing package tseries of R.

Following is the error. The point might be "gfortran: No such file or directory". How do you fix it?

> install.packages("tseries")

  there is a binary version，but a source version:
         binary  source needs_compilation
tseries 0.10-41 0.10-42              TRUE

Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation?
y/n: y
install source‘tseries’

  • Did you try to install the binary version (i.e. answering no at the question)? – nicola Jun 23 '17 at 09:02
  • Is `gfortran` installed on your machine? If not, try with https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries – Marco Sandri Jun 23 '17 at 09:03
  • what is gfortran? Is it Fortran? No. How do you install the binary version? – William Song Jun 23 '17 at 09:05
  • When i execute $brew search gfortran, it shows GNU Fortran is now provided as part of GCC, and can be installed with: brew install gcc. I have installed gcc with brew. so I had it already. – William Song Jun 23 '17 at 09:13

    See that after you tried `install.package("tseries")`, R asked: `Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation?` and you replied "yes". Try "no" instead. – nicola Jun 23 '17 at 09:14
  • @nicola succeed. Thank you. – William Song Jun 23 '17 at 09:39
  • @nicola any insight into what's going on? that worked for me as well now... I didn't see any `$PATH` issues so couldn't understand why `tseries` installer wasn't finding the right `gfortran` binary apparently... – MichaelChirico Nov 20 '18 at 04:31
