[Rcpp-devel] Cannot install Rcpp 0.8.6 under R 2.11.0 or R 3.0.0 in Ubuntu 12.10

[Kirill Müller]

Hi

I cannot install Rcpp 0.8.6 from source in Ubuntu 12.10. Installation 
fails with the message appended below. The error is similar for R 2.11.0 
and R 3.0. What am I doing wrong?

I'd like to build a test environment with R 2.11.0 and a corresponding 
version of Rcpp. Thank you for your help.


Cheers

Kirill
