Carson, I'm a Windows user, and I think that is causing me problems. The rpy package that comes from the OSGeo4W installer (1.0.3) is configured for R 2.6.2. and Python 2.5. rpy2 requires R >= 2.8.0.
I haven't been able to locate rpy windows installers for Python 2.5 and R >= 2.8.0. So in a nutshell: there is no version of R that overlaps both rpy and rpy2 when they are installed on Python 2.5. I've tried unsuccessfully to create my own Windows installer for rpy; there is an issue with the C++ header files changing in later versions of R, which is way beyond my expertise. I'm all ears if you, or anyone else, has more ideas.

You should be able to install both rpy and rpy2 on the same system, so it shouldn't be a problem to install rpy and get going with spqr.
