conda中的R安装xml2包（Ubuntu）

miniconda3中R安装xml2报错：（安装do包时发现缺少xml2和rvest包，单独安装xml2发现以下问题，libxml2及libxml2-dev安装后发现rvest包也能安装了）

Configuration failed because libxml-2.0 was not found. Try installing:
 * deb: libxml2-dev (Debian, Ubuntu, etc)
 * rpm: libxml2-devel (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL)
 * csw: libxml2_dev (Solaris)
If libxml-2.0 is already installed, check that 'pkg-config' is in your
PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH contains a libxml-2.0.pc file. If pkg-config
is unavailable you can set INCLUDE_DIR and LIB_DIR manually via:
R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars='INCLUDE_DIR=... LIB_DIR=...'

根据提示是缺少依赖项libxml2-dev，于是退出R，查询后发现确实没有，于是在当前环境中安装libxml2-dev（必须是r-base所在的环境）

conda list      #列出当前环境安装的所有软件
conda list libxml2      #加上软件名称，指定查询想看的软件
conda list libxml2-dev

使用的清华镜像源，没找到libxml2-dev，在anaconda官方（https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/）中查询后，发现有 libxml2-devel-cos7-x86_64，安装如下（尝试后发现libxml2和libxml2-devel都需要安装）：

conda install libxml2
conda install -c conda-forge libxml2-devel-cos7-x86_64      #指定官方地址下载

安装成功后，打开R，重新安装xml2

chooseCRANmirror()      #选择一个离得近的镜像源
install.package("xml2")

成功安装！
