Failed to install R on Centos 7

I have CentOS 7 (3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64) and I seem not be able to install R and then get Rstudio server working.
This is what I did:
rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
yum install R
Then I got this error:
Transaction check error:
file /usr/lib/systemd/system/blk-availability.service from install of device-mapper-7:1.02.107-5.el7_2.1.x86_64 conflicts with file from package lvm2-7:2.02.105-14.el7.x86_64
file /usr/sbin/blkdeactivate from install of device-mapper-7:1.02.107-5.el7_2.1.x86_64 conflicts with file from package lvm2-7:2.02.105-14.el7.x86_64

I am not sure what it is. There is nothing from whereis R because it didn't install.
If I install Rstudio Server, it would fail to start the service and said ERROR unable to find installation of R in the system
Can someone tell me how to install R properly on Centos 7?
That is not related to R. Your log shows a conflict between "device-mapper" and "lvm2", and these packages are used to operate with devices such as hard disks and partitions (before someone downvotes me, YES this is a crude simplification).
You should try to update your system with yum before installing R.
I resolved this problem by updating lvm2 firstly, then install R.
This idea was from: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1294128

Install RPostgreSQL on RHEL 6.5 libpq-fe.h Error

I have RHEL 6.5 Server with an installation of R (3.1.1) & RStudioServer (0.98.1062)
I have postgresql-9.3 installed and handling a large database. In order to connect R to PostgreSQL, I have in the past used the RPostgreSQL (still do on my CentOS 7 Workstation). However, attempting to compile under RHEL 6.5 I get an error
In file included from RS-PQescape.c:7:
RS-PostgreSQL.h:23:26: error: libpq-fe.h: No such file or directory
The file is located on my system here:
/usr/pgsql-9.3/include/libpq-fe.h
Libpq is part of the Postgres installation, but RPostgreSQL cannot find it:
[root#server /]# yum list libpq*
Loaded plugins: product-id, refresh-packagekit, security, subscription-manager
Installed Packages
libpqxx.x86_64 1:4.0.1-1.rhel6 #pgdg93
libpqxx-debuginfo.x86_64 1:4.0.1-1.rhel6 #pgdg93
libpqxx-devel.x86_64 1:4.0.1-1.rhel6 #pgdg93
Is there any way to tell RPostgreSQL where to look (symbolic links?) or some other workaround? This should be simple, but I've wasted several hours on this already...
Followup info because I just had the same problem.
Installing yum install postgresql-devel resolves the error too.
I ended up looking into the RPostgreSQL configure file in the tarball, searched for the file name the script couldn't find and decided it was easiest to create an environmental variable:
export PG_INCDIR=/usr/pgsql-9.3/include/
Worked like a charm after that.
If you have sudo rights, you could also try:
yum install postgresql-devel

Installing iPDC Unix Programme

The command run is sudo make install and I am attempting to install as the root user.
Your installed GTK version is probably too old to support this software. GtkBuilder (a component within GTK) showed up at version 2.12. To find out what version you have, run pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 at the command line. But that version has been around for quite some time. What version Centos are you running? I assume 5, which is quite old.
Upgrading GTK can be tricky, as most of your desktop software relies on it. If you're in for an adventure, the "easiest" would be to upgrade your Centos OS (to 6.x). You might be able to compile a more recent GTK from source and keep it separate from your system GTK, but that will take some patience.
It seems that GTK is not installed.
Try something like: yum install gtk2 or yum install gtk2-devel
