Im trying to install a package named "rgeos" on R 3.3, but when I type
install.packages("rgeos")
But it returns me the following error (same happens with other packages, but not all the packages):
> * installing *source* package ‘rgeos’ ...

Any clues how con install this package?
It seems that when running R in Linux is necessary to install some build tools. As in this case, in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install libgeos-dev
Then try package install again.
