[R] Rgnome in Ubuntu

[Steve Lane]

Hi
I am trying to set up Rgnome in Ubuntu (Dapper) and when I use the 
instructions:

/path/to/gnomeGUI/configure R_HOME=/path/to/R/installation
     make
     make install

I get an error message when I try to 'make' as follows:

/usr/local/lib64/R/etc/Makeconf:5: /make/vars.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `/make/vars.mk'.  Stop.

Can anyone help me?
Steve
