Hi R Users,
I am new to running R on a Linux platform (I'm used to Windows) - I'm running R
2.7.0 on Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) as sudo (without Emacs). My architecture is
Pentium D (x86_64).
I am having problems successsfully configuring the downloaded package 'udunits'.
When I execute
> install.packages("udunits", lib="/usr/local/lib/R/library")
I get the following result:
trying URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/udunits_1.3.tar.gz'
Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 29985 bytes (29 Kb)

Warning message:

I have tried downloading the package manually and running ./configure, but with
the same result. As the error message suggested, I looked at the file
udunits_1.0/udunits/src/Makevars.in, (contents below), but am not sure what to
modify.
