[R-sig-Debian] Installing RCurl -

[Søren Højsgaard]

It was done already without problems, and I can build all my packages. I am not sure where to find config.log though.

Søren, when we say "install libcurl4-*-dev" we mean this as shorthand saying
"besides the build environment you should already have".  So please also do

         sudo apt-get install r-base-dev

and then try again.  Share all relevant logs with us.
