OK, you are missing some packages (not from R):
sudo yum provides */libpng-config

2:libpng-devel-1.5.13-2.fc19.i686 : Development tools for programs to
manipulate : PNG image format files
Repo : fedora
Matched from:
Filename : /usr/bin/libpng-config
So install:
sudo yum install libpng-devel
<SNIP>
I just tried the command
sudo yum provides */libpng-config
to see what would happen, not being familiar with "yum provides". I got:
sudo: No match.
Because of that "*" I guess. So I then tried enclosing
"*/libpng-config" in quotes:
sudo yum provides "*/libpng-config"
And *that* seemed to work as advertised.
Things like that can be very off-putting to us bunnies. I managed to
figure out
what was the right thing to do in this case, but I might well not have
managed.
Please, people: When you give advice, make sure you get the little
details right.
Knowledgeable types and gurus can readily spot and fix minor
infelicities. But to us
bunnies a minor infelicity can be completely bewildering. Test your
code before
sending!
