ASReml-R in Ubuntu9.04 has same problem as in 'Does ASReml-R work with R-2.9.0?'

Hi all,

Has anyone tried to install asreml-R in Ubuntu (9.04)? I got virtually
the same problem as described below. Using
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=myPath/asreml/libs and then library(asreml,
lib.loc='myPath') didn't solve the problem. ASReml stand-alone works
fine.

It would appear from my recent experience that R-2.9.0 does something
different that is incompatible with the way the asreml package looks for
the executable.

Code:

> require(asreml)
Loading required package: asreml
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
  unable to load shared library '$Rhome/asreml/libs/asreml-R.so':
  libirc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
