I think that is a question for Simon (CC'ed) who controls both the rJava (aka r-cran-rjava) side as well as how r-base provides. Might be a question of path ordering. I am not sure. I don't my side of things sets anything. Dirk | | Emmanuel Bourg | -- http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com | @eddelbuettel | e...@debian.org
