[R] rgeos- installation help

[Roger Bivand]

It is very likely that your GEOS installation is too old. Are you trying to
install rgeos 0.1-8, available since yesterday from CRAN? This should check
that GEOS is >= 3.2.2, so perhaps you are trying to install an earlier
version of rgeos? You have not provided your full configure report, so it is
hard to tell. 

In addition to libgeos, you need libgeos-dev and libgeos-c1. 

If you cannot meet the requirement on GEOS from a Debian binary package,
consider installing from source - the Debian binary builds are rather
out-of-date. Be sure to update sp before installing rgeos. Finally, this
question is better suited to R-sig-geo than R-help.
