Hi. I'm not part of the developing team but I had a similar problem. Have you tried updating your GCC compiler to a later version and modifying your compilation flags in Makevars and try installing Rfast again. You can check this Stack Overflow post - Although this guides you to configure Apple Silicon compilers, it might guide you in the right direction

Just update your gcc! You have a very old version. The newest gcc is better and creates better optimised code. The last version is 12.X. If I remember correctly you need something greater than 9.X.

Why you had to change the Makevars file?

I recently bought an M3 Mac and downloaded R from CRAN. When compiling the Rfast package I encountered an error where the linker couldn't find the path for gfortran . I followed the steps in the above link and that solved my issue.
