You really need to ask the developer for support. You haven't indicated where
you downloaded it or what instructions you followed, but I got a similar error
trying to install
http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/software/mareymap/MareyMap_1.0.zip, so it seems a
case of stale software. The DESCRIPTION file indicates his email address is
rez...@biomserv.univ-lyon1.fr.
Since that website appears to be last modified in 2008 and the package itself
is dated February 2009 getting support may not be so easy. However, it is
licensed under GPL2.0 so if you are interested enough you can fix the bugs
yourself with a bit of study if he does not respond.
