Hi Andreas
This are actually two bugs:
- r-base dyn.load not accepting relative library names on Linux systems
and
- r-cran-rcppparallel trying to workaround the bug in dyn.load by
deducting the full path of libtbb from the architecture instead of the
correct multiarch setting and failing.
This has nothing to do with r-cran-rstan or r-cran-rstanarm, but it
seems to be the first one to find out. I've attached patches to fix
both problems, properly re-assigned and adjusted the bugs.
This behaviour of R dyn.load might even be considered a security
vulnerability, because loading libraries from the working directory is a
problem.
