Does this imply you built R from source, or did you actually install R
and R dev from deb packages?

If you built R from source you need to use the correct configure switch
to ensure the dynamic library gets built, because the default is to not
build it.

This error is typically because libR.so is not being found. I am not in
a position to check at the moment, but I believe current packaged
versions of R place the shared object here:

/usr/lib/R/lib

First, go find lib.R.so. Assuming it is in the above location, place
that location in your /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig.
