I tried to make this as plain as possible: RQuantLib needs QuantLib.

Did you consider Googling this?

You seem to think that QuantLib was somehow related to CRAN; it is not.

On Debian or Ubuntu, you'd so 'sudo apt-get install libquantlib0-dev'.  On
Gentoo, you may have to start from the QuantLib sources.
