libtinfow.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Question

Conda was used to install R in my centos 7 sysytem. conda install r the version of installed r is r-3.4.1.

However, when I use r, there have a error output. "/usr/local/bin/miniconda3/lib64/R/bin/exec/R: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfow.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Some tests have been used according to search by google use the keyword "libtinfow.so.6".

Only two information can be found. They have no help to me. enter image description here

Answer 1

I had the same problem on a recent centos installation. But I think this has nothing to do with centos, but rather to misconfiguration related to different R packages version. To solve the problem, I just uninstall all the R related packages and gxx and gcc packages using "conda uninstall ". Than I installed R using "conda install -crr", which force to install gcc and gxx within the same process.
