I'm trying to install the rJava package in R running on an Amazon Lightsail instance (Amazon Linux 2017.09.1). I keep getting an error that gcc can't find libgomp.spec
I've located the file at /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-amazon-linux/6.4.1/libgomp.spec and I've tried setting up a symbolic link to it, but I haven't been able to figure out where to put the symbolic link so gcc can find it. For example, this doesn't seem to work:
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-amazon-linux/6.4.1/libgomp.spec /usr/local/lib64/libgomp.spec
Does anyone know where to put the symbolic link so gcc can find it? There is probably a hint in this output that I don't understand:

Sorry for answering my own question, but adding these three symbolic links allowed rJava to install on Amazon Linux 2017.09.1:
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-amazon-linux/6.4.1/libgomp.spec /usr/lib64/libgomp.spec
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-amazon-linux/6.4.1/libgomp.a /usr/lib64/libgomp.a
ln -s /usr/lib64/libgomp.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib64/libgomp.so
I had the same issue on Amazon Linux when installing rpy2.
sudo yum install gcc64 solved it for me.
