A useful clue, Brian. Maybe this is the reason as foreign.ts.out contains:
* Installing *source* package 'foreign' ... /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/R-2.0.1/bin/INSTALL: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied ERROR: configuration failed for package 'foreign'
Does this try and execute from /tmp by any chance? I had a similar
Yes, it does, a configure script. I believe you can alter that by setting TMPDIR to point somewhere else. That's a pretty esoteric situation: why is /tmp so special to you?
problem recently because /tmp is mounted (rw,noexec,nosuid) for security reasons. I had to alter /etc/fstab temporarily and reboot as /tmp is used by many things.
The others installed so far have 0 size:

I have a compilation problem on FC2, 2xXeon box.
The following dialogue output from the end of the compilation illustrates:

Take a look at the file foreign.out in that directory. (R-devel does this better, by cat-ing the file at that point.)
