[R-sig-Debian] update.packages() for R 2.7.1: mgcv fails

[Michael Friendly]

Hi
I just upgraded my debian/stable to R 2.7.1 via apt-get install r-base 
r-base-core r-base-dev, and then
began to update.packages()

 > update.packages(lib.loc="/usr/local/lib/R/site-library")
 > update.packages(lib.loc="/usr/lib/R/library")
but I get:
  ....
* Installing *source* package 'mgcv' ...
** libs

I'm not sure which version of lapack is missing or where to find it.
Also, for r-cran-* packages, whether 
update.packages(lib.loc="/usr/lib/R/library")
is equivalent to apt-get install r-cran-mgcv etc.

thanks,
-Michael
