Re: [Rd] Installation of RGtk2 (PR#10519)
This isn't an R bug. You should send contributed package problems to the package maintainer, in this case Michael Lawrence. You need to install GTK; it's not included as part of the package. See this page for instructions: http://www.ggobi.org/rgtk2/ It would probably be a good idea for the R package to recognize this omission and print more helpful error messages, but setting that up is tricky. Michael, if you want help, please contact me offline.

Re: [Rd] Installation of RGtk2 (PR#10519)
This is not a bug, and not appropriate to R-bugs as it is about a contributed package. From http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.6/ReadMe you will see Package RGtk2 requires an installed version of Gtk2 with version number = 2.10.11. Now, so does GGobi and hence rggobi. 'Installed' includes ensuring they are on your path, so if GGobi works I would expect RGtk2 to.
