[R-sig-Debian] gcc: error: SHLIB_LIBADD: No such file or directory

Hi Johannes,

echo $LANG already correctly (?) shows en_US.UTF-8

Cheers,
Marius

PS: I also tried the 'deb/Ubuntu'-way of installing R, but obtained:

mhofert at localhost:~$ sudo apt-get install r-base

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
r-base : Depends: r-base-core (>= 3.0.2-1saucy) but 3.0.1-3ubuntu1 is
to be installed
          Depends: r-recommended (= 3.0.2-1saucy) but it is not going
to be installed
          Recommends: r-base-html but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
