Hi All

I am having a problem installing biomaRt. Did the package names change or
sth ??

I install biomart normally from biocLite
source ("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite)
biocLite ("biomaRt")

but I get this erros (XML and RCurl):

ERROR: configuration failed for package 'XML'
* removing '/home/alyaa/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.11/XML'
During startup - Warning message:
Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C"
* installing *source* package 'RCurl' ...
checking for curl-config... no
Cannot find curl-config
ERROR: configuration failed for package 'RCurl'
* removing '/home/alyaa/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.11/RCurl'
During startup - Warning message:
Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C"
ERROR: dependencies 'XML', 'RCurl' are not available for package 'biomaRt'

I then try to install RCurl or XML independently, but I get the same error:

ERROR: configuration failed for package 'RCurl'
* removing '/home/alyaa/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.11/RCurl'

The downloaded packages are in
'/tmp/Rtmp6dsDAX/downloaded_packages'
Warning message:
In install.packages("RCurl") :
  installation of package 'RCurl' had non-zero exit status

I was using biomart normally 3-4 months ago so I am not sure if sth has
been updated or so ?? any ideas ?

Thanks a lot
Alyaa
