[R] R-gnome: no way to configure

[Agustin Lobo]

Hi!

I've been able to configure and make R (1,4,0 linux)
except for the gnome support. I've checked all packages and libs mentioned
in R-admin.pdf (and by Luke Tierny) to make sure that I have them and even
using the following:

./configure --with-gnome --with-gnome-includes=/opt/gnome/include
--with-gnome-libs=/opt/gnome/lib --with-libglade-config=opt/gnome/lib

I still get:

R is now configured for i686-pc-linux-gnu
  Source directory:          .
  Installation directory:    /usr/local
  C compiler:                gcc  -mieee-fp -D__NO_MATH_INLINES -g -O2
  C++ compiler:              c++  -mieee-fp -g -O2
  FORTRAN compiler:          g77  -g -O2
  X11 support:               yes
  Gnome support:             no
  Tcl/Tk support:            yes
  R profiling support:       yes
  R as a shared library:     no

I really don't know what else I can do, gnome runs ok on this machine.

Should I just give up? There is no way to require that configure tells 
exactly what's missing?

Thanks
