What happens when you try this from the R command line from a terminal window, rather than manageR? Possibly manageR is hiding some diagnostic messages. Since sp is being installed from source, my first suspicion is that you don't have the requisite C/Fortran compilers on your system. Is it ubuntu/apt-based? Do "sudo apt-get install build-essential" from a command line, that should get them.
