install.packages("rgl") and dyn.load("PATH.TO.rgl.so/rgl.so") work on my
Gentoo box. (I can't run library(rgl) from home without X so I cannot say
what else works.)
Along the lines of Dirk's suggestions, recent R-ebuilds use
CDEPEND="dev-lang/perl
>=dev-libs/libpcre-7.3
app-arch/bzip2
virtual/blas
virtual/ghostscript
readline? ( sys-libs/readline )
jpeg? ( media-libs/jpeg )
png? ( media-libs/libpng )
lapack? ( virtual/lapack )
tk? ( dev-lang/tk )
X? ( x11-libs/libXmu x11-misc/xdg-utils )"
and of course all of THEIR dependencies.
But I'd just try
emerge -pD R
to see what would get rebuilt. (This should rebuild out-of-date
dependencies.)
If you installed R using emerge and anything besides R would get rebuilt,
then run 'emerge -D R'.
If you followed the R Installation and Admin guide to install R (as I do
as I hate waiting months for the latest release to be deemed stable enough
to be unmasked), then emerge everything listed by 'emerge -pD R' up to R
itself, reinstall R, and try again.
FWIW,
equery depgraph R | less
will allow you to check all the R dependencies, but there are over
1000, so this is probably a bit much.
