Here's the problem (did you not see this?).

That line should read:
awk -f convert.awk < world.line > world2.line

So check that you have awk installed. I can't think what else could cause this.  Note the 
maps package does pass the package check test for Linux x86_64, but only r-patched (not r-
release) is recorded on the web site as having been tested.

See http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_summary.html

Hope this helps,
