I am using ubuntu. When I tried install.packages("RGtk2") it
downloaded
and seemed to compile successfully:
** building package indices ...
* DONE (RGtk2)
The downloaded packages are in
/tmp/Rtmp57id87/downloaded_packages
However, when I tried library(RGtk2) I found
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
unable to load shared library
'/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RGtk2/libs/RGtk2.so':
/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RGtk2/libs/RGtk2.so: undefined symbol:
cairo_path_data_type_get_type
Error in fun(...) : Failed to load RGtk2 dynamic library: Error in
dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :

'/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RGtk2/libs/RGtk2.so':

Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'RGtk2'

Any suggestions?

You didn't tell you which version of Ubuntu, R, RGtk2, ... you are using so it's a bit hard to guess. FWIW on my Ubuntu machine(s) at work, I install these from CRAN sources and that works without a hitch. Consider signing up on r-sig-debian where Debian / Ubuntu questions are more topical.

A bit more information Ubuntu: dapper drake with all updates R: 2.5.0 RGtk2: 2_2.11.0-1 cairoDevice 2.3.0 sudo apt-get install r-cran-rgtk2 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done E: Couldn't find package r-cran-rgtk2

This was just a typo. I will upload a fixed version soon.
