Hello, I have searched on the R-Project site, R-Help archives, and the Internet at large, and I cannot find a solution to my problem.
I am running R version 3.0.2 (2013-09-25) -- "Frisbee Sailing" on Ubuntu 13.04. When I try to install several packages, including quantmod, with dependencies=T set, and I keep getting long lists of packages that result in "installation of package 'X' had non-zero exit status". When I try to install X, I get another list of packages that failed to install. After a few iterations of this, the package that I am trying to install is listed among the packages that have failed to install. I found a reference online to build-essential, but when I tried to install that, I got "package ‘build-essential’ is not available (for R version 3.0.2)". Any hints or follow-up questions would be greatly appreciated.
