R Package Installation Error

Question

I am trying to install rpart package in Linux using the following command:

    /opt/vertica/R/bin/R CMD INSTALL rpart_4.1-5.tar.gz

However I get the following long error message:

* installing to library '/home/vertica/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/3.0'
* installing *source* package 'rpart' ...
** package 'rpart' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
** libs

Below is the result of sessionInfo() call in R:

Could someone help me with what this error message is about and how to resolve it?

Thank you.

Maybe include in the post the output of `sessionInfo()`, so people can see some of your system/R details. (rpart 4.1-5 installed fine for me using `install.packages('rpart')`) — jbaums, Feb 06 '14 at 09:51
Do you get the same error if you use `install.packages` from within R? — jbaums, Feb 06 '14 at 09:58
Yes. I get the same error when I install it in R using install.packages command. — Ravi, Feb 06 '14 at 10:02
Take a look at [this post](http://stackoverflow.com/q/14865976/489704) and see if the answer suggested there helps. I notice the same compilation error for `rpart` is reported there. — jbaums, Feb 06 '14 at 10:15
(When I said it worked for me, I should have mentioned that I'm running 64-bit R 3.0.2 on Win 8.1) — jbaums, Feb 06 '14 at 10:16
I have gcc version 3.4.6 installed? From the link that jbaums gave it appears that atleast version 4.2 is required for R 2.15? Is it true for R 13.0 as well? — Ravi, Feb 06 '14 at 10:30
There is no R.13. But you should by all means update to R 3.0.2 and make sure you are using the recommended compiler. If gcc 4.2 was needed for R 2.15 then at least that version would surely be needed for 3.0.2. — IRTFM, Feb 08 '14 at 23:26
I meant to say R 3.0.2 not R 13. That was a typo. Let me try with gcc version 4.2 — Ravi, Feb 10 '14 at 06:59
