[R] One package calling C-code from another package.

[Ole Christensen]

Dear R people

We have two packages, where the first package (geoR) is required by the
second (geoRglmm). 
Both packages have functions calling  C-code via .C().

We would like to call C-functions included in the first package 
from within the C-code in the second package.
Is this possible?

An appropriate header file was included in the src directory of the
second package but this alone did not solve the problem, probably 
because we have to link things properly when compiling the second
package.

We've browse the "Writing R extensions" manual and tried to use
"Makevars" but we did not succeed/got it right.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help
