[R] Re: R-gnome: no way to configure

I have 
/opt/gnome/bin/libglade-config
instead of 
/usr/bin/libglade-config

and Yast states that libglade-config is installed.

I've searched config.log and did not find anything
on libglade.

Instead, the output of configure seems interesting:

checking for gnome-config... (cached) no
checking for gnomeConf.sh file in /usr/local/lib... not found

I do have gnomeConf.sh, but in /opt/gnome/lib/ Nevertheless,
I do state 
--with-gnome-libs=/opt/gnome/lib

So it seems that configure does not look where it's told.

Might be that configure does not actually read the
--with-gnome-libs parameter ?
