Dear all,
I seem to be having an impossible time install R on my centos 8 virtual
machine (I know centos 8 is no longer maintained, but it is a work server
so I have no choice in the matter.). I installed EPEL and enabled
PowerTools, but I cannot install R due to conflicts in the requirements for
openblas-devel. Could some help me get past this issue? Thanks in
advance, Roger
