I had troubles replicating the commands for the installation of spgrass6
following the instructions in the excellent paper by Roger Bivand.
On a Debian testing box, the full sequence is:
su
apt-get install libgdal-dev
R
install.packages(c("sp","rgdal"), dependencies=TRUE,
repos="http://microarrays.unife.it/CRAN/"\)
rS <- "http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/R&quot;
install.packages("spgrass6", repos=rS, dependencies=TRUE)
install.packages("spGDAL", repos=rS, dependencies=TRUE)

Of course you should replace the mirror (http://microarrays.unife.it/CRAN/)
with one closer to you (list on: http://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html).

More generally, I think GRASS News should not be a dead document: people will
refer to it for months, maybe years, and it would be useful either modifying
the text or to put an addendum at the end of it.

Many thanks.
