I'm not seeing this:

121$ python
Python 1.5.2 (#0, Apr 10 2001, 10:03:44)  [GCC 2.95.3 20010219
(prerelease)] on linux2
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
>>> import RS
Initialized R-Python interface package.
>>> RS.call("library","splines")
['splines', 'RSPython', 'ctest', 'base']
>>> 


for example.  

I made a slightly different set of changes (I didn't make the ones you
suggested, Greg).

I'd be happy to email a copy of the new version
(RSPython_0.3-1ajr.tar.gz, use as RSPython_0.3-1.tar.gz) which has
configure patched to find the Debian default locations of things; it
would be interesting to see if it works for you (it did for me on 2
Sid/unstable boxes).

best,
-tony

    GRW> 1) I had to change $R_HOME/src/modules/X11 :

    GRW> $(SHLIB_LINK) -o $@ $(R_X11_la_LDFLAGS) $(R_X11_la_OBJECTS)

    GRW> $(R_X11_la): $(R_X11_la_OBJECTS) $(R_X11_la_DEPENDENCIES)
    GRW> $(SHLIB_LINK) -o $@ $(R_X11_la_LDFLAGS) $(R_X11_la_OBJECTS)
    GRW> $(R_X11_la_LIBADD) $(LIBS) -L$(R_HOME)/bin -lR

    GRW> 2) I had the same link problem with ctest, so I changed

    GRW> PKG_LIBS = -lg2c -lm -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4 -lm

    GRW> to

    GRW> PKG_LIBS = -lg2c -lm -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.4 -lm
    GRW> -L$(R_HOME)/bin -lR


    GRW> 3) Will all libraries that get loaded into R inside of python
    GRW> require this?


    GRW> If I try to load other 'recommended' packages that include C
    GRW> code I get dyn.load erros, EG:

    >>>> RS.call("library","splines")
    GRW> Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :

    GRW> "/usr/local/lib/R/library/splines/libs/splines.so":
