[R-sig-Fedora] Fedora 11: Package RBGL won't install

[Matthias Buehlmaier]

Peter, 

I just installed RBGL on Fedora 10 (64 bit) without any problem. Below
is my system information. Maybe the problem is related to the gcc
version, as you have suspected: 

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.3.2 20081105 (Red Hat 4.3.2-7)

> version
               _                           
platform       x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu     
arch           x86_64                      
os             linux-gnu                   
system         x86_64, linux-gnu           
status                                     
major          2                           
minor          9.2                         
year           2009                        
month          08                          
day            24                          
svn rev        49384                       
language       R                           
version.string R version 2.9.2 (2009-08-24)


Cheers, 

Matthias
