[BioC] installation of Rsamtools

[Conny [guest]]

I still have problems installing Rsamtools. The first idea was that my R version was too old - so I updated it to the latest version. still the installation does not work - any ideas?
this is just the end of the list after:

> biocLite("Rsamtools")
Warning: S3 methods ‘[<-.CURLOptions’, ‘[[<-.CURLOptions’ were declared in NAMESPACE but not found
Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) : 
  shared object ‘RCurl.so’ not found
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘Rsamtools’

* restoring previous ‘/home/lab/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.14/Rsamtools’

The downloaded packages are in
	‘/tmp/RtmpRyJ4Zm/downloaded_packages’
Warning messages:
1: In install.packages(pkgs = pkgs, repos = repos, ...) :

4: In install.packages(pkgs = pkgs, repos = repos, ...) :

farther above there was also the error:

ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘rtracklayer’
