I have R 3.4.1.1 on my computer (Linux).
I want to install R version 2.14.1 since the package Rmosek does not work in newer version.
I have downloaded the R-2.14.2.tar.gz from Cran.
My problem is that I do not understand the INSTALL instructions,
It says to unpack the R sources and go to the top directory and issue the following commands:
./configure
make
I wrote the following in a terminal:
tar -zxvf R-2.14.2.tar.gz
cd Downloads
cd R-2.14.2
./configure
It is run but finally gives the error:
configure: error: --with-x=yes (default) and X11 headers/libs are not available
make
and it gives the error:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
The file explains that If my make is not called `make', set the environment variable MAKE to its name, and use that name throughout these instructions. I really do not know how I should do it since I am new in Linux.
Is there any other instruction with more explanation? I would be very thankful in advance for your help or guidances.
Regards,
Shima.
