I tried to make this as plain as possible: RQuantLib needs QuantLib. | ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘RQuantLib’ | * removing ‘/home/mark/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.0/RQuantLib’ | Warning in install.packages : | installation of package ‘RQuantLib’ had non-zero exit status | | The downloaded source packages are in | ‘/tmp/RtmpVvgUYR/downloaded_packages’ | | My problem is Quantlib doesn't seem to be available through the normal | CRAN mirror I use.

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