Having difficulties getting rJava to install on my Debian Squeeze box. Perused the R-help list and tried some things that have worked for others but not for me. Below is the output of my attempted build, R CMD javareconf -e, and sessionInfo(). Note I tried the R CMD javareconf also as root, restarted R after each of these, all no help.
