I need to use the fields package in R.

R/RStudio are installed in an Amazon EC2 instance.

I am using R 3.4.

I can't install fields package because R can't install spam and dotCall64 packages.

I tried to install the packages manually using the package archive files, but didn't work as well.

If I try to install dotCall64 directly, I get this:

gcc: error: libgomp.spec: No such file or directory

make: *** [dotCall64.so] Error 1

ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘dotCall64’

  • What do you mean by "R can't install spam and dotCall64 packages" ? Was there an error message when you tried `install.packages("fields", dependencies = TRUE)` and if so, what was it ? – neilfws May 15 '19 at 03:43
  • @neilfws Yes, there is an error message when I try `install.packages("fields", dependencies = TRUE)` or `install.packages("dotCall64")` directly. The error is the same for both. The error message is that one in written in the question. – Luis Otavio Fernandes May 15 '19 at 12:10

  • Did you try to remove `$(SHLIB_OPENMP_CFLAGS)` from the `dotCall64/src/Makevars` file? – Nairolf Aug 12 '19 at 03:13
