Hello everybody!
I am using GRASS 6.4.0 RC6 in ubuntu 10.04. I installed R version 2.11.1
(2010-05-31) just today. As I need GRASS and R interface for my work, I went
ahead as per instructions in
http://www.osgeo.org/files/journal/final_pdfs/OSGeo_vol1_GRASS-R.pdf.
Initially when I started R from within GRASS and tried the command I got the
following errors:
> install.packages("spgrass6", dependencies = TRUE)
Warning in install.packages("spgrass6", dependencies = TRUE) :
argument 'lib' is missing: using '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library'
Warning in install.packages("spgrass6", dependencies = TRUE) :
'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
Would you like to create a personal library
'~/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.11'
to install packages into? (y/n) n
Error in install.packages("spgrass6", dependencies = TRUE) :
unable to install packages
> q()
Later I started R using "sudo R" and then the following errors and warnings
occurred.
> install.packages("spgrass6", dependencies = TRUE)
Warning in install.packages("spgrass6", dependencies = TRUE) :
argument 'lib' is missing: using '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library'

As an intermediate level user in terms of commands and also regarding R and
GRASS packages I am not able to decide what went wrong. Can you please help
me out.
