Thanks for the help.  I installed libgtk2.0-dev and RGtk2 is being
installed as I write.

[R] Problem installing RGTK2 on ubuntu 7.04

2007-06-29 Thread Andrew Muller
Hello, all

I am trying to install RGTK2 on my Ubuntu 7.04 system. The installation
fails with a message that RGtk2 requires GTK 2.8. As far as I can tell I
have GTK+ 2.10.11 installed. Can anyone suggest a way to proceed? 

Thanks very much. 

Here is the failed installation:

 install.packages(RGtk2)
Warning in install.packages(RGtk2) : argument 'lib' is missing:
