Troubles Installing R Word Cloud Package - Mint 17.1

Attempting to install the R Word-Cloud Package into User Library, however receiving the following error. Looks like it successfully downloads package, but bombs during installation. I suspect the issue is resulting from trying to install in a User Library and the second g++ line, but not sure how to correct. I am running Mint 17.1 64-bit.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Figured out the issue. In my .Rprofile file, I had the following:

cat(".Rprofile: Setting CMU repositoryn")
r = getOption("repos") # hard code the Oakridge repo for CRAN
r["CRAN"] = "http://mirrors.nics.utk.edu/cran/"
options(repos = r)
rm(r)

I removed the first line changing it to the following:

r = getOption("repos") # hard code the Oakridge repo for CRAN
r["CRAN"] = "http://mirrors.nics.utk.edu/cran/"
options(repos = r)
rm(r)

Restarted R and install worked. I guess the WordCount package didn't like the first line.
