[R] Can't build termstrc package from source

[Uwe Ligges]

I guess you asked R to:

    R CMD build ...

which builds the source package, but you need

    R CMD INSTALL ...

in order to install the package or

R CMD INSTALL --build  ...

in order to install *and* build a binary package. See the manual R 
Installation and Administration.
