[R] Problem installing Rcplex in ubuntu

[kv]

Dear List,

I'm trying to install Rcplex on a ubuntu 64 bit machine, and have not been
successful.

After installing  cplex latest version from ibm's website (everything as
standard, except 
 had it installed unto ~/ (the home directory) rather than the default
directory).

i type (from inside the directory where  Rcplex_0.3-0.tar.gz is):

>CPLEX_INCLUDE_PATH=~/ILOG/CPLEX/cplex
>CPLEX_INCLUDE_PATH=~/ILOG/CPLEX/cplex/examples/x86-64_sles10_4.1/static_pic

>R CMD INSTALL \
    --configure-args="--with-cplex-include=$CPLEX_INCLUDE_PATH \
    --with-cplex-cflags=-fPIC \
    --with-cplex-lib='-L$CPLEX_LIB_PATH/static_pic \
    -lcplex -lm -lpthread'" Rcplex_0.3-0.tar.gz

and i get; 


* installing to library ‘~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.12’

* removing ‘~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.12/Rcplex’

however, when i check 

>cd ~/ILOG/CPLEX/cplex/include/ilcplex
>ls
>cplex.h  ilm.h  ilocarray.h  ilocplex.h  ilocplexi.h  iloextrmgr.h 
ilogoals.h  solution.xsd  solution.xsl

i.e. cplex seems to be here. 

i also attach to this mail the MAKE file 
(found in ~/ILOG/CPLEX/cplex/examples/x86-64_sles10_4.1/static_pic)

Also i don't have much experience in all this bash/shell business and 
installing software in linux. 

Can anyone, by any chance, help me ? 

Thanks in advance,
