[R] R-packages installation problems

[Roberto Cremonini]

Dear,

I've installed the following R version on HP compaq 6710 b under Fedora 8:

 > version
_
platform i386-redhat-linux-gnu
arch i386
os linux-gnu
system i386, linux-gnu
status
major 2
minor 6.2
year 2008
month 02
day 08
svn rev 44383
language R
version.string R version 2.6.2 (2008-02-08)

When I try to install some R packages I receive the following message:
[root at localhost R-packages]# R CMD INSTALL gtools_2.4.0.tar.gz
* Installing to library '/usr/lib/R/library'
* Installing *source* package 'gtools' ...
** libs

pointer from integer without a cast
make: *** [setTCPNoDelay.o] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'gtools'
** Removing '/usr/lib/R/library/gtools'

Indeed R headers (R.h and Rinternals.h) don' t exist on my filesystem. 
Where can I find them? How can I install them?

Thanks for help,

Best regards, Roberto
