[R] problems installing Design and Hmisc libs

[Federico Calboli]

Dear All,

when I try to:

install.packages("Design"); install.packages("Hmisc") 

I get the following error messages:

* Installing *source* package 'Design' ...
** libs
g77 -mieee-fp  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=i586
-mcpu=pentiumpro  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=i586
-mcpu=pentiumpro -c lrmfit.f -o lrmfit.o
make: g77: Command not found
make: *** [lrmfit.o] Error 127
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'Design'

* Installing *source* package 'Hmisc' ...
** libs
g77 -mieee-fp  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=i586
-mcpu=pentiumpro  -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=i586
-mcpu=pentiumpro -c cidxcn.f -o cidxcn.o
make: g77: Command not found
make: *** [cidxcn.o] Error 127
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'Hmisc'

The connection to CRAN and the download are fine though.

I am using R 1.7.1 under Mandrake Linux 9.1. My C compiler is gcc 3.2.2.

Any idea how to install the packages?

Regads,

Federico
