[R] Information about compatibility R

[Jeff Newmiller]

The reason people like to pay companies for their commercial or "enterprise" operating system distributions is because the someone you pay can do all the legwork to confirm compatibility. You should be asking your commercial distro provider to render this service. If they deem it too far below their radar to help you with then you need to identify which open distro is similar enough to your commercial environment to piggyback OS packages from, or go to the source and start compiling and installing required supporting software, which may extend to installing the necessary compiler to build R. The version of Linux itself is unlikely to prevent this last option from working.
