But as I mentioned earlier, R-2.9.0 is current and R-2.9.1 will be
released next week.  It's nearly always best to use a recent version,
since lots of things change, not only your python interface (which
I've never used).

So it looks as though you don't have a ~/bin/ directory.  

Do you know how to use your ~/bash_profile file?  Maybe that's the
easiest way for you to go.  It's not very good if things change in a
few months, but if you send us a listing of your ~/bash_profile file,
we can show you what to add to make it work now.  ~/bash_profile will
be a very short file, so you can paste it into email.

I don't know what RPy2 needs, but if you tell us what's in
~/.Renviron, we can show you what needs to be added.  It's possible
nothing will be necessary there.
