Summary: errors just after install on Ubuntu 8.10

Initial Comment:
Hi all:

I installed R & RKward a couple of days ago, on a Ubuntu 8.10 box, and each time I run RKward, I get those type of messages in the  terminal window opened by RKward:
----------------------------------------------------

I've seen that under /home/xavi/ there was no folder called  rkward.
Moreover, that file all.pluginmap seems to be under: 
/usr/share/apps/rkward/all.pluginmap

Last, When I open RKward, the main window doesn't allow to see any option about plugin under "Arrangements". And the help file is not shown either.

Did I miss something before installing R and RKWard from ubuntu repositories?
Does it work fine for any body with Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid ?

Message:
Hi Xavi,

The version in the repos is possible a corrupted version with all the KDE
4.0 -> 4.1 -> 4.2 changes, R's 2.8 change, ... You may want to compile from
SVN, recently there has been some patch updates. See here:
http://rkward.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=RKWard_SVN
If you are not comfortable, I can send you a binary .deb file, let me
know.

For help pages, r-base-html is needed.
