That's because of a recent change in R-2.14-dev: development R does no longer report the target release number (I am not about why they made it this way). This change is breaking setup.py when fetching the R version. Until I fix it, you have to either rely on R-2.13 (latest release) or hack setup.py yourself to bypass the version check.

        What does "R --version" return ?


        I check out the source code of R in recently svn repository,
        and compile by abs script in archlinux.
        The R version information:
