I am having a bit of trouble installing XML and or RCurl on my Ubuntu machine 13.10. I performed all sudo update and upgrades today.
I am trying to use rattle for R. I am unable to install 'XML' which is required for the use of rattle. This is pretty much the same question that was askedright herejust a year later and a different OS. Here are the error messages that I am getting back:

Run
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
The error messages on package install in R indicate that the curl and xml libraries are not present or cannot be found.
In CentOS 6+ you can do it using
sudo yum -y install curl sudo yum -y install libcurl libcurl-develYou also need
sudo yum -y install libxml2 libxml2-devel版权声明：本文内容由互联网用户自发贡献，该文观点与技术仅代表作者本人。本站仅提供信息存储空间服务，不拥有所有权，不承担相关法律责任。如发现本站有涉嫌侵权/违法违规的内容， 请发送邮件至 dio@foxmail.com 举报，一经查实，本站将立刻删除。
