Description Orion Poplawski 2011-03-16 18:06:26 UTC 
Description of problem:

It seems at least somewhat standard (for R users) to expect the R include files to be in /usr/lib/R/include.  I think a symbolic link in the R-devel package would be useful.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
R-devel-2.12.2-1.fc15.x86_64
Comment 1 Tom "spot" Callaway 2011-04-04 19:21:08 UTC 
Is this really standard? I mean, its a minor change, but I really don't want to encourage people to violate the FHS like that.
Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2011-04-04 19:31:39 UTC 
Well, I think it comes from a default install going to /usr/local/R/include.  You already have /usr/lib/R/{bin,etc,lib,library,modules}.
Comment 3 Michel Alexandre Salim 2011-08-09 13:36:01 UTC 
Fixed in 2.13.0-1
