Hi Dirk, Dirk Eddelbuettel wrote: > Then it is probably Perl related -- see /usr/share/R/share/perl/R/Dcf.pm That is certainly a possibility, but it appears as if none of the perl packages have been updated recently. Just a few lines into read.dcf(), it calls return(.Internal(readDCF(file, fields))) , which is a C function defined here https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/main/dcf.c that yields the original error message. So, looking at the list of updated packages, I would have guessed that the culprit was libglib2.0-0 (rather than libgfortran3 or libpango1.0-0), but neither downgrading libglib2.0-0 down to the version in testing nor upgrading to the version in experimental resolves the problem. I can install and use R 2.10.1 from the CRAN source, so it must be something with a dependency of r-base-core. Does apt-get source -b r-base-core still succeed on your computer (it doesn't on either of mine)? If so, can you tell me if there are any conspicuous differences with the versions of the libraries you have installed?
