Dear all Ubuntu users

I am an otherwise happy user working on my PhD.  I am trying to download
some packages for the R statistics program but come up with the
following messages:

trying URL
'http://www.sourcekeg.co.uk/cran/src/contrib/QCAGUI_1.2-7.tar.gz'
Content type 'application/x-tar' length 1017887 bytes
opened URL
==================================================
downloaded 994Kb

mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/00LOCK':
Permission denied
ERROR: failed to lock directory '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library' for
modifying

The downloaded packages are in
        /tmp/RtmpJxvMD5/downloaded_packages
Warning messages:
1: installation of package 'QCAGUI' had non-zero exit status in:
install.packages() 
2: cannot create HTML package index in:
tools:::unix.packages.html(.Library) 

Does anyone have any suggestions, please about how I can unlock the
appropriate directory.

Many thanks

Douglas
