PL/R Extension RPM Fails to Install
Problem
Installing the VMware Postgres PL/R extension RPM displays this message:
error: Failed dependencies:
libR.so()(64bit) is needed by vmware-postgres14-plr-extension-14.0-0.el7.x86_64
Resolution
R must be installed before you install the PL/R extension. Install R from the EPEL repo using these commands:
$ sudo yum install epel-release
$ sudo yum install R
After R has been installed, you can use yum
to install the VMware Postgres PL/R extension RPM.
See Installing VMware Postgres for full installation procedures.
