This is nothing to do with gee (which I maintain). It seems what you
installed a binary version of R, and hence do not have the files it
refers to for source package installation. You appear to need to
install the blas-devel RPM.
Questions about binary installations of R are best asked on the
relevant list, e.g. r-sig-fedora.

Hi,
I am trying to install gee on our server but I get the error below.
I do not have root on this machine so no control on how R was
installed itself. It looks like it cannot find blas libs, the only
ones i can find on the machine are:
/usr/lib64/libblas.so.3 -> libblas.so.3.0.3
/usr/lib64/libblas.so.3.0 -> libblas.so.3.0.3
/usr/lib64/libblas.so.3.0.3
and :
$ R CMD config BLAS_LIBS
-lblas
Any ideas how to get this package to install? (sessionInfo() at the bottom of
email)
thanks for any help
