Right. Dependencies problems are the most common using HomeRange plugin, as 
the coupling with R is not so tight: the plugin is not supposed to install 
missing packages.

As Paolo pointed out, it is better to install the required packages with the R 
command (on Linux you need to be root)

install.packages("package_name", dep=TRUE)

It will assure the complete set of dependencies. Otherwise you can also check 
the dependencies on each package's web page and download them manually - but 
it is more complicated.
See also the wiki page [0] of the plugin for more information.

all the best,
Anne
