[R] Installing the glmnet package.

[gerald.jean at dgag.ca]

Hello,

R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20) on a linux-64-bit machine.

I am trying to install the "glmnet" package and I get the following error:

*******************************************************************************
> install.packages(pkgs = "glmnet")
trying URL
'http://cran.parentinginformed.com/src/contrib/glmnet_1.1-5.tar.gz'

* Installing *source* package 'glmnet' ...
 This package has only been tested with gfortran.
 So some checks are needed.
 R_HOME is /usr/lib64/R
Attempting to determine R_ARCH...
R_ARCH is
Attempting to detect how R was configured for Fortran 90....
    Unsupported Fortran 90 compiler or Fortran 90

ERROR: configuration failed for package 'glmnet'
** Removing '/usr/lib64/R/library/glmnet'
********************************************************************************

it says it had only been tested with the "gfortran" compiler, but this
compiler is on the machine I am using, it is in "/usr/bin/".  If this is
the problem is there a way to specify to "install.package" where to look
for the compiler?  If this is not the problem does anyone knows what the
problem could be?
