[BioC] Unable to Install on SUSE Linux 8.1

[michael watson (IAH-C)]

Hi

I am running R version 1.7.1 on SUSE Linux 8.1

I downloaded the tarball and typed:

R CMD INSTALL Bioconductor_1.2.tar.gz

It got so far and then:

* Installing *source* package 'rhdf5' ...
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes

configure: error: please specify a valid hdf5 installation with --with-hdf5=DIR

Any help?  Thanks in advance :-D
