That worked, thanks! I was missing the python2.4-dev libraries (duh!) Toby

As you are on Ubuntu, which rebuilds the RPy package I maintain for Debian, you can make your life easier by - installing either the existing python-rpy package (which may be an older version), or - at least use it for it build-depends: $ sudo apt-get build-dep rpy which will give you the right -dev packages for free. My prefered solution would be to rebuild the (current) Debian package locally on Ubuntu, but that may require a modicum of familiarity with the Debian build tools. There are tutorials on the web, but you may want to skip that step if you're in a hurry.
