Installing In a Permissive Environment (EPEL is not restricted)
INSTALL R STUDIO RED HAT INSTALL
It’s a good idea here to keep track of anything else that you install like that, so you can do it again at a later point should the need arise. Such situations are not common however and should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. For example the R library ‘rgdal’ will fail to install unless the ‘gdal’ tools are installed on the server. You may run into issues during the life of the server, where a user attempts to install an R package, only to have it fail with an error about a missing library. This doesn’t cover everything you might need, but it covers the most common dependencies. yum install -y libcurl-devel openssl-devel libxml2-devel This might seem odd, but some R packages can rely on OS level packages, such a C libraries and so on, and if they’re not available, the R package will fail to install.
Next we’re going to want to install some common dependencies of R packages that may get installed later. This probably installs more than we strictly need, but it works just fine. I take a shortcut here and just install the pre-configured group called ‘Development Tools’. These are needed because on Linux, packages are generally installed from source, and if they contain any compiled code, will need to ensure that we have the compilers and build tools available. The first of these dependencies are a bunch of development tools. Before we begin, it’s a good idea to install some general purpose tools that will help us out once R is installed.
