Mark, The first thing I would look at is whether there are any "*-dev" packages in synaptic for the libraries etc that are 'missing'. These -dev packages contain the header files and are not necessary for running the application, but are necessary for installing other apps from source that interact with them. This is a surprisingly little-advertised issue with Linux packaging that I found out about from the R installation manual.
