Hi Christian. The "bad news" is that:
from rpy import * r("library(spatstat)") and: from rpy import * r.library("spatstat") both work fine for me using Windows XP, R 2.4.0 and a freshly installed spatstat 1.10-3 and mgcv 1.3-19, with Python 2.3 (all installed using pre-compiled binaries) and a self compiled slightly patched rpy 0.99.2 What are you using?

The only thing I can suggest is make sure this directory is on the path before hand. e.g. import os print os.environ["path"] #If not there already try this: os.environ['PATH'] += ';C:/Program Files/R/R-2.3.1/library/mgcv/libs/mgcv.dll' #Then try: import rpy rpy.r.library("spatstat") You might also try the Progra~1 version of the directory (without spaces) too.
