R installation on Fedora 12


I am migrating from 64-bit RHEL 5 to 64-bit Fedora 12 and I'm getting the
following error when I run ./configure in the directory R-2.10.1...

checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
checking X11/Intrinsic.h usability... no
checking X11/Intrinsic.h presence... no
checking for X11/Intrinsic.h... no
configure: error: --with-x=yes (default) and X11 headers/libs are not
available

I've used yum search to look for X11 packages and on the key word Intrinsic
without seeing something obvious.  Which package do I need to install to
get past this error?

Thanks

su -c "yum install libXt-devel"

in a shell/terminal should install the relevant header that was missing
above.

It highly likely that you are missing more of the X11 headers you'll
need and I forget now exactly which they are.

Just out of curiosity, any special reason not to use directly yum to install R ?

Thanks Gavin and Marc, never thought to look in the Appendix.

Pierre, that would be simpler, wouldn't it;  thanks for the suggestion,  DB
