[R] Compilation error during package installation

[wanding ZHOU]

Hi,

I am a Newbie for R. I just installed R-base on my notebook with
openSuSE 11. However, I always got compilation errors in installing
add-on packages. For example, when installing "igraph" I got the
following error:

It says "no argument to 'malloc'". Any idea on what's wrong here?

Thanks in advance.
