Dear All
I could solve the problem: I removed my .Rprofile and I could install
the package via the usual
install.packages("rmgarch")
My .Rprofile contains few settings, therefore, it was not too difficult
to understand what was conflicting with the installation. The issue in
.Rprofile was the following
q <- function (save="no", ...) {
quit(save=save, ...)
}

No problem Rolf. Thanks for you interest. But the problem is still
unsolved!
I experimented and found that I too could not install rmgarch. However
the string of error messages that I got was quite different from yours.
I did some scrounging around and after a bit of trial and error found
that I needed to do:
sudo apt-get install libgmp3-dev
sudo apt-get install libmpfr-dev
Then the R command
install.packages("rmgarch",lib="~/Rlib")
worked. (Note that "~/Rlib" is where I keep my "contributed" packages.)
This is under Ubuntu 18.04. I don't know if this will work for you
since, as I said, the error messages that I initially got were different
from those that you got.
*Don't* ask me about what to do under Mac OSX or (God save us!) under
Windoze!!! :-)
cheers,
Rolf
P.S. I have taken the liberty of CC-ing this to the r-help list in case
it is of interest to others or in case others may have useful
contributions to add.
