semPlot package dependency issues - r

Question

I am trying to use the package semPlot with R version 3.2.3 on Linux Mint. Is the only solution to downgrade my R-version? I have installed package XML without errors. UPDATE BELOW
ran: install.packages("semPlot",dependencies=T) errors:
....

UPDATE
Based on the comments I discovered I had to install:
sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install g++
sudo apt-get install build-essential
I am now getting:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llapack
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lblas
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Thanks again to the comments I discovered I had to install:
sudo apt-get install liblapack-dev
which finally fixed my issues and I was able to install the package
