I have some problem in running R-cran's Demography package.
The hmd.mx function need Rcurl. I tried to install RCurl, but meet the following error:
*********************************************************************
...
* installing *source* package ‘RCurl’ ...
checking for curl-config... no
Cannot find curl-config
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘RCurl’
* removing ‘/home/z/R/i686-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.12/RCurl’
...
*************************************************************
How to fix the problem?
