You miss its dependencies:
bzip2-devel
gcc-c++
gcc-gfortran
libICE-devel
libSM-devel
libX11-devel
libXmu-devel
libXt-devel
libjpeg-devel
libpng-devel
ncurses-devel
pkgconfig
readline-devel
tcl-devel
tetex-latex
texinfo
tk-devel
These are very good points, thanks Enrico. What would people think about
doing the suggested R/R-core/R-devel split instead? Users would still be
able to get everything with yum install R, it would meet the guidelines,
and minimal installs with R can simply have R-core.
