R packages not getting installed due to Linux based package dependencies - r

I am trying to install "devtools" and "tidyverse", however, it giving the following errors in Fedora 28. I have searched on various forums but could not fix the issue.
Can any please help. The Error message is stated below.

you should install libcurl4-openssl-dev in Ubuntu, try the following codes in Ubuntu terminal:
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
then try again to install languageserver package in R

I also tried installing manually curl but it still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong? How to solve this issue?
The problem is mentioned here:
Configuration failed because libcurl was not found. Try installing:
* deb: libcurl4-openssl-dev (Debian, Ubuntu, etc)
* rpm: libcurl-devel (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL)
* csw: libcurl_dev (Solaris)
Do you have libcurl on your computer? If not, you'll need to install it with e.g.
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
in your terminal (i.e. not R) if you are on Debian or install other library if you have another OS, like mentioned above.

installing r packages ('rvest') on raspberry pi/linux: why does my configuration fail?

I'm trying to run my web scraper on a raspberry pi but keep failing. I have never worked with Linux so my problem is probably pretty basic.
When I open R and type install.packages('rvest') it always gives me the same error.
What am I doing wrong?

(StackOverflow says my post is mostly code and that I should add some more words which makes absolutely no sense because it's a short question concerning a long code. So, here are some German words I just found in letters on my desktop (mostly stupid bills):
- Empfangsquittung
- Nebenkostenabrechnung
- Promilleanteil-Abrechnung
- Zusatzleistungsbarcodes
- Liegenschaftsverwaltung
- Rückforderungsbeleg
)
It says, libcurl is missing. So, install it:
apt install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev

Likewise when installing the openssl package. My EC2 instance type is a t2.medium.
Here, both some OS and some R dependencies are needed before installing the aws.s3 package of cloudyr.
aws.s3 depends on three R packages: curl, httr and xml. These depend, in turn, on the libssl, libxml2 and libcurl4-openssl OS libraries.
On a fresh new EC2 instance, assuming a Ubuntu box (but of course there are the equivalent yum packages for Fedora/CentOS/RedHat distros), OS dependences have to be installed for first:
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential libssl-dev libxml2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
Then you can install the following R packages, in the specified order:
install.packages('curl')
install.packages('httr')
install.packages('xml2')
install.packages("aws.s3", repos = c("cloudyr" = "http://cloudyr.github.io/drat"))
Hope this helps
