[R] problem with update.packages()

[Stefano Calza]

Hi.

I'm experiencing a problem with updating packages on R 1.8.1 (2003-11-21) on Debian testing.
I get the following message when updating for example Design:

...
...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lg2c-pic
...

But I sould have it. I never had problem before

$gcc -v

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.3/specs
Configured with: ../src/configure -v --enable-languages=c,c++,java,f77,pascal,objc,ada,treelang --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/3.3 --enable-shared --with-system-zlib --enable-nls --without-included-gettext --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-debug --enable-java-gc=boehm --enable-java-awt=xlib --enable-objc-gc i486-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.3 (Debian)

Any suggestion?

TIA,
Stefano
