I've just dl the .rpm of R 1.0.1, installed it and then launched
insatll.packages("akima")
after re-launching R [--vanilla], the command
library(akima)
has the only effect to coredump the program. Here is the output of gdb and
strace...
Hmm. Doesn't happen here. (BTW: Remember to include as much information about your system as you can think of. It's not obvious whether you're running RedHat or SuSE for instance and in what version.)

This would seem to be the problem: the dynamic library isn't there. Did you get any error messages while compiling the package? (Except for "...might be used uninitialized..." of which there are quite a few here too).
