Fail to install Xgboost in R (Windows) - r

I have installed RTool34 in R and checked with Sys.getenv('PATH').
R version: 3.3.3
For some reasons, I had to install Xgboost 0.4-x on my computer (Windows).
I'm using devtools to install.
Error Message I got:
make: *** [xgboost_R.o] Error 1 Warning: running command 'make -f
"Makevars.win" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-33~1.3/etc/i386/Makeconf" -f

SHLIB="xgboost.dll" ' had status 2
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'xgboost'

Can you check your c++ compiler version as well? you would need greater than 4.8 to install the latest version of it. I am not sure if you meant you are not able to install xgboost version 0.4 itself.

recipe for target 'runtime_ccall.o' failed in installing julia (llvm?)

I just downloaded and installed the latest version of linux mint, mate. I want to install julia again but I get an strange error during the installation of v1.3.0
(... lots of output)
/home/usr/julia/usr/include/llvm/Support/MathExtras.h:545:38: required from here
/home/usr/julia/usr/include/llvm/Support/MathExtras.h:189:16: error: ‘static_assert’ was not declared in this scope
Makefile:165: recipe for target 'runtime_ccall.o' failed
make[1]: *** [runtime_ccall.o] Error 1
Makefile:75: recipe for target 'julia-src-release' failed
make: *** [julia-src-release] Error 2
This is somehow strange, but it appears to be related to LLVM. In trying to update LLVM I typed
sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get install -y llvm
But the error keeps showing... any idea what am I missing?

Error installing SP package on Linux Mint 19

I would like to know if anyone has the solution for the following SP package installation error in Linux Mint 19? Here's the error message.
/bin/bash: line 2: g++: command not found
/usr/share/R/share/make/shlib.mk:6: recipe for target 'sp.so' failed
make: *** [sp.so] Error 127
ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘sp’
Thanks, Kaio.
It seems you don’t have the g++ compiler.
Open a terminal window and try
sudo apt-get install g++
The other alternative which includes some common build libraries is
sudo apt-get install build-essencial
Then try to reinstall the R package.

can't compile beta version of igraph from github

I use DevTools tools to install
install_github("igraph/rigraph")
I can install "gaborcsardi/pkgconfig" just fine, which is also required. But "igraph/rigraph" doesn't work. I need it because I'm using an experimental package that requires this version of igraph. I get the following error:
compilation terminated.
make: *** [foreign-graphml.o] Error 1

NOTE! the line "Warning: running command" in the code is translated by myself, since this was in my OS language which is danish. I think it is an accurate translation, but the wording might be slightly different.
I'm on a 64-bit Windows. I also have Lubuntu 16.04 installed on the same machine, and there I don't have any problems with the install. I need to use the package on a windows machine, unfortunately. RTools 3.3 is installed.
I also filed this at the github page:

gcc error when installing Statnet package

Installing statnet on mac 10.10.3 with R 3.2.x (RStudio 0.99.441).

I tried updating XCode/Command Line Tools. Also tried not installing dependencies. I have been able to install other packages, such as ergm and sna.
It looks like the install is looking for the GCC folder and not finding it.
whereis gcc
reveals that my gcc is in /usr/bin/gcc
It looks like the install is looking for it in /usr/local/lib/gcc/
Is there a way to fix this?
This is a compilation error that you only get if you are trying to install packages from source, or when a package requires a library to be compiled from source. Normally, if you don’t use the latest version of R, you can install statnet from binary and thus R won’t have to compile the source package.
The version you are mentioning at the beginning of your message (0.99.441) is the version of your R-Studio, and not R. The version of your R is 3.2.x (Hence its address in the Library folder: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources…). Before trying to fix the compilation error you may want to try to roll back your R to a version like 3.1.2 or 3.1.3 on which you can probably download and install statnet in binary format.
For the compiler, my guess is that even if you fix the address of your gcc with a symlink, you will still get an error about gfortran or the version of gcc. Once I solved this issue by installing R and the right version of gcc through Homebrew, but right now I don’t have the possibility to try the solution and tell you exactly how.
My experience (on Yosemite) is that if you use 3.1.2 or 3.1.3, even if there is need for compilation, the error with gcc won’t occur.
sudo mkdir /usr/bin/lib && sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/lib/gcc
Creates a new directory in /usr/bin called `lib' and creates a symbolic link to gcc in that new directory.
If that doesn't fix the error, you can undo it with:
sudo rm -i /usr/bin/lib/gcc && sudo rm -id /usr/bin/lib

Error installing package from source in R-3.1.2

I have following error installing RDCOMClient in R-3.1.2 on a Windows machine from source:
Warning: running command 'make -f "Makevars.win" -f "C:/sw/R-3.1.2/etc/i386/Makeconf" -f "C:/sw/R-3.1.2/share/make/winshlib.mk" SHLIB_LDFLAGS='$(SHLIB_CXXLDFLAGS)' SHLIB_LD='$(SHLIB_CXXLD)' SHLIB="RDCOMClient.dll" OBJECTS="COMError.o RUtils.o connect.o converters.o"' had status 127
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'RDCOMClient'
Same error happens if I do it via install.package or from the command line.
There is no binary available therefore I have to install it from the source.
Here is the package site:

Can somebody help me please? Thank you!
