[R] Rcmdr installation under Unbuntu installatiion errors

[Vojtěch Zeisek]

Hello,
1) Try Rkward, it is much more better,
2) You can install Rcmdr directly via r-cran-rcmdr (generaly, search r-cran-*; 
You can also add special repository, see <http://cran.r-
project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/>) and/or
3) if You wish to install normal packages from source (that is IMHO what 
install.packages() does in Linux), You need development packages for R as well 
as kernel header, compiler for Fortran, C and so on. I do not know how are 
those packages named in Ubuntu, but it should be no problem to find it via 
Synaptics. But I'd prefer solution 2. :-)
Best regards,
Vojtěch Zeisek
