在Ubuntu中安装R语言的"devtools"包时出现错误

有人能帮我找出解决这个错误的方法吗？

install.packages("devtools")

该命令用于安装名为“devtools”的 R 语言软件包。

Answer 1

相关的行：

> ** package ‘RCurl’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked checking for curl-config... no Cannot find curl-config ERROR: configuration
    > failed for package ‘RCurl’

你需要为 RCurl 安装 libcurl（devtools 依赖于此）。

从http://www.omegahat.org/RCurl/FAQ.html获得信息，假设你使用 apt-get 在 Linux 平台上：

sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

你应该能够获取你需要的库来使用RCurl。

检查你的R版本。尝试更新它。这个问题将会被解决。我花了一天时间并尝试了所有的解决方案，但没有一个解决方案有效。试试这个解决方案。
