I think that I have an up to date version of the gfortran compiler. I
have copied the results of what i think are the relevant dpkg --list
commands below.
Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately the choice of blas can be very confusing. You
should look for packages with "gf" in the name (gf -> gfortran).
Otherwise you're liable to get a blas which depends on the older
GNU fortran compiler, g77, and this may well conflict with R.
I don't have access to an ubuntu system at work, but from home I
can check which packages I have installed on ubuntu 8.04.
