General question on the message with "non zero exit status"

[Chel Hee Lee]

I have a general question how to understand the message with "non-zero exit status" when new package is installed. Based on my experience, this message implies a package dependence. Am I correct to understand this message? Are there anyone who can provide some reference or explain details about the message with "non zero exit status"?

I very appreciate for your kindness in advance.

A process typically indicates success by an exit status 0 and csan flag
different kinds of errors by other exit codes. This is so far unrelated
to R.
The INSTALL script evaluates the exit status and tells you that
something went wrong according to that status, for more information, you
will need to look at the (text) output of the INSTALL run.
