I installed a binary (Debian etch). I may try the same things at my laptop. There I have Ubuntu, and it uses much newer R versions. maybe they also have fixed this problem. If the error messages would be a littlebid more verbose, this could help. Is it possible to configure the verboseness of the error messages?
