OK - the problem seems to be a name conflict. The build system status
report [1] states:
,----
| - Package name conflicts:
| ...
| [7] "rspatial: spgrass6" "spgrass: spgrass6"
`----
So the easiest to install at the moment seems to be to checkout the
sources via
,----
| svn checkout svn://r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/spgrass/
`----
and then install from the sources.
Cheers,
Rainer
