basic rule of thumb (sometimes you can get away without this, but often you 
can't): If you're using an R version from CRAN, you can't use RKWard from the 
normal repository. We have that covered on Ubuntu, though. See 
https://launchpad.net/~rkward-devel . You should pick a variant marked "CRAN 
version of R".

Likely an installation problem of sorts. Generally, the least error-prone 
solution seems to be to use
  cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix`
which will install to /usr, rather than /usr/local.
