I am trying to install and older version of R (3.2.1), and am following the instructions on this page: https://www.miskatonic.org/2015/06/23/installing-r-from-source/
As suggested by the webpage, I uninstalled R
usr#ubuntu:/usr/lib/R/R-3.2.1$ R
The program 'R' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt install r-base-core
And I am fairly positive that "make" is installed:
usr#ubuntu:/usr/lib/R/R-3.2.1$ sudo apt-get install make
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
make is already the newest version (4.1-6).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
When I run
$ ./configure
$ make
I get the following (I am not sure what is normal and what is an error message). In addition, the following files are created: Makeconf.in, Makefile.fw, Makefile.in

I also tried following the instructions here: Installing older version of R, but the R version 3.2.1 is NOT listed in the directory (xenial).
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can finish installing this version of R? I appreciate the help - ahhn

tar -xzvf R-3.2.1.tar.gz
Next, make another folder for R's binary version and use the to that folder here:
mkdir <full path>/R3.2.1_VERSION
Build R from source, please make sure to add the full path in prefix
./configure --prefix=<full path>/R3.2.1_OLDERVERSION --enable-R-shlib --with-blas --with-lapack
make
sudo make install
Once, you are finished, please set the environment variable to make sure the right version of R is called
export PATH=<full path>/R3.2.1_VERSION/bin:$PATH
If everything went smoothly then you can see your current R version as 3.2.1 when you run R.
If you want to switch to another version of R then change the environment variable to your preferred version of R package in your account as follows:
export PATH=<full path>/R<your preferred>_VERSION/bin:$PATH

I think your best course of action is to look into what exactly the configure script tries to run. Maybe it expects another version of CPLEX?
I experienced the same problem installing the Rcplex 0.3-3 package for R3.6.1 on Ubuntu 18.04 with CPLEX 12.9.
Turns out that the Rcplex package was developed and tested with CPLEX 12.6.3. When I installed this older version of CPLEX on Ubuntu, I was able to install Rcplex 0.3-3 by following the instructions in the INSTALL file.
On my system, this command did the trick:
sudo R CMD INSTALL --configure-args="PKG_CFLAGS=-fPIC PKG_CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/ibm/ILOG/CPLEX_Studio1263/cplex/include PKG_LIBS='-L/opt/ibm/ILOG/CPLEX_Studio1263/cplex/lib/x86-64_linux/static_pic -lcplex -lm -lpthread'" Rcplex_0.3-3.tar.gz
This appears to be an issue with the Linux version of Rcplex only. I was able to install Rcplex with the latest version of CPLEX on my Mac.
I want to install R in Linux Server. I was going through the site: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html.

configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not

When I run the make command I am getting the following issue:
[root#sd-cd1a-b9e0 R-devel]# make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
Can anyone please help how to get rid of this issue?
Your ./configure command failed as you can see at the bottom of the log:
configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not
available
Here's SO answer to the error above:
error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not available
Even though I am a bit late here but I think this is still a quite common problem. What you have seen is that R is complaining about missing dependencies. You need to install A LOT OF packages before you are able to compile it. Here is a full list of them:
https://github.com/Jiefei-Wang/Painless-R-compilation-and-installation-on-Ubuntu
If you are using Ubuntu this is just a matter of copy and paste. Otherwise, you may need to take some time and figure out how to install them on your machine.
My goal is to install R on a EC2 Amazon Linux AMI cluster that I have built.
I have logged into the master and:
When in the home directory:
$ sudo yum -y install make libX11-devel.* libICE-devel.* libSM-devel.* libdmx-devel.* libx* xorg-x11* libFS* libX* readline-devel gcc-gfortran gcc-c++ texinfo tetex
wget https://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-3/R-3.2.2.tar.gz
tar zxf R-3.2.2.tar.gz && cd R-3.2.2
./configure
make
make install
I start to see somethings that look like errors after I run the ./configure. Then make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Thanks in advance.
You need to install gfortran, which is probably by default not part of the gcc package. You can have a look at what packages are fortran related:
yum search "*fortran*"
And find the package that contains gfortran, something like gcc4-gfortran, and install it.
I'm trying to install NS2.35 on fedora 17 using allinone package.
I'm new to linux environment and have already spent many hours trying this. So far I've found out it is a problem with dependent packages. But I'm not able to figure out following error.
Please help.
