What computer architecture, operating system, what R version etc.?

Right, I assume that people know that I am using Ubuntu Jaunty 64-bit, R
2.9.1, latest rpy2, grass-6.4.0svn from source.

Please always repeat everything every time; don't delete content from threads.

I'm travelling and cannot handhold.

Build only from source, only one piece at a time, and check everything every time. I'm sure that other people have seen dependency problems when installing from binary on this platform. This is not seen on any other platform (Linux, Windows, OSX). There are two underlying problems: "dependency hell" and your inability to sort out your own system. I suspect that the XML package in R does not have its dependencies satisfied. It could also be GDAL/GRASS not having dependencies satisfied. The reason to build from source is that then you control the dependencies, rather than the reverse.

Please stop creating the impressionn that software that works for effectively everyone else is broken only because you can't get your own system to work, and expect others to do your work for you!

What is the error message?

The message is the title of this thread.

I am usingce 6.4RC5 GRASS and R 2.9.1 on mac
OS X 10.5.7, and it is working fine. I remember there being a problem
with something, but I don't remember exactly what.  If you were to
provide the error message then maybe it would jog my memory.

Sorry, that's all the prog prints.

Also, it may be a good idea to search the R-sig-geo list archive, as your
problem may have already been solved (assuming it is the same one that
I had).

Before doing countless compilations/installations I filtered the web for
an hour! I've found some similar messages in grass-dev's mailing-list
but nothing specific.

I thought that /etc/ld.so.conf is my problem... and I commented out all
grass-versions but grass-6.4.0svn. I even removed all other
grass-versions, (re-)installed X-times spgrass6 but no luck.

It's the first time I see this message. I also tried to do some
debugging but R requires, I guess, special treatment (meaning other than
gdb, etc.) !?
