[R] trouble installing SparseM

[Erin Hodgess]

Dear R People:

I am attempting to install SparseM on R 2.15.0 on a Linux 11.10 system.

Here is the output
> install.packages("SparseM",depen=TRUE)

It can't seem to find -lgfortran.  However, the gfortran exists.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.

thanks in advance,
