I am attempting to install the ivreg package into R (4.0.3) on my Mac (OS Big Sur Intel Version 11.6.8)
I am having what apparently is a fairly common problem installing its dependencies, but I am receiving a slightly different error message. My error message from the command install.packages('ivreg'):
clang: error: -E or -x required when input is from standard input
clang: error: no such file or directory: 'L/usr/local/gfortran/lib'
make: *** [Matrix.so] Error 1

The instrumental bit appears to be the very first two lines, where it's describing something about a gfortran directory. I've tried to install gfortran as well as all of the other dependencies to no avail. When I attempt to do so, I'm told that the packages are unavailable for my version of R.
QUESTION: Is there a way to alleviate this error and install ivreg on my machine?
