Many thanks Michael,
libtiff4-dev installed via Synaptic and compilation completed
successfully. Without bit of help I could have wasted weeks on this!

Sure enough when you download the source files manually and hunt inside
there is no tiff.h
I suspect the problem is me not tiff!

Andrew:
Ubuntu Packages (http://packages.ubuntu.com/) is a great resource.
Half way down the page you can search the contents of packages for the
file that is missing. The package you are missing is "libtiff4-dev".
Install that via apt or synaptic and then try to install the package
in R again.
Hope this helps,
Michael
