[R-sig-Geo] library fails to load in linux

[Harold-Jeffrey Ship]

Hi Rolf. Thank you for your quick response!

I had tried using install.packages, and just now tried the method you 
suggested (R CMD INSTALL spatstat_1.42-1.tar.gz) with the same results.

By the way, we have the same problem when we try on RHEL 6.4 on a 
different machine with R 3.2.0. I should mention that both of these are 
VM's.

I can send you the entire stack trace if it will help.
