I'd recommend installing these packages with install.packages() into  
your home directory -- unless you're a site administrator of course.  
Look at the ADMINISTRATION AND MAINTENANCE OF R PACKAGES section of  
the Ubuntu or Debian README on CRAN (near the end) for a simple way to  
automate all this:
