Hello, I have openSUSE 11.1
Trying to install randomForest
as SU  after invoking R   install.packages("randomForest")

and I get this

* Installing *source* package ‘randomForest’ ...

i | libgfortran41 | The GNU Fortran Compiler Runtime Library | package
i | libgfortran43 | The GNU Fortran Compiler Runtime Library | package
