Hi, I'm trying to install the Bioconductor core packages (version 2.9) when using R version 2.14.1, in OpenSuse 11.4. However, the install does not complete, due to the following error message: configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH Has anyone had the same problem, and did you find a straightforward way to fix it? Thanks in advance for your help Tom Bartlett

Well, it sounds like you don't have the compilers and/or devel packages loaded. Go into your package manager for openSUSE and make sure the compilers are checked ( C/Fortran) as well as the basic devel libraries. If not then install them.

Hi Tom You may also need a package named curl-devel. In Fedora, curl-devel is not installed by default; I do not know about OpenSuse.
