[R] RSperl Problem

[Panayiotis Georgiades]

Hi there, I have Perl version 5.14.2 and R installed on Ubuntu 12.04 and had a problem while trying to install RSPerl. I followed the instructions on the guide in omegahat.org, and ran the commandR CMD INSTALL  --configure-args='--with-in-perl' RSPerl
and the following error occured:* installing to library ‘/usr/local/lib/R/site-library’
* installing *source* package ‘RSPerl’ ...
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
No support for any of the Perl modules from calling Perl from R.

       Set PERL5LIB to /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RSPerl/perl

Do anyone knows how can I resolve this issue?
