Installation failure on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

Hi,

I can't seem to be able to compile under Ubuntu (after installation of all relevant libs, including gdalcubes itself):

I feel like I should probably point R to the relevant location of the library, but can't quite figure out why.

Hi, it seems that the git submodule src/gdalcubes has not been cloned correctly. Could you try to install without devtools from the command line?

cd /tmp
git clone --recursive https://github.com/appelmar/gdalcubes_R
R CMD INSTALL gdalcubes_R

@appelmar Thank you so much, that worked.
