I cannot get the afex R package to install. Among some other issues with installation that I am stuck at.

I tried the following:
(1) setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /usr/local/lib in my .zshrc, hopefully that is the right path
(2) brew install gcc
(3) Installing afex package in R with install.packages('afex')
-- this was giving errors like "ld: library not found for -lgfortran"
(4) So I tried installing [github.com]
but then installing afex still gave a similar error "ld: library not found for -lm"

I get a TON of warnings when trying to install afex, but perhaps the most relevant errors are:

I am out of ideas

=========================  summary, please fix:  =========================
*  just be aware: login shell 'zsh', but our code examples use 'tcsh'
*  missing R packages (see rPkgsInstall)
*  insufficient data for AFNI bootcamp
   (see "Prepare for Bootcamp" on install pages)

Thanks!
