I see that you put this in. But it breaks the testing suite in the
current development version. Can we go back over this decision to see
what the original problem was?
Pierre is maintaining an R module (rJava, I think if memory serves),
where it refuses to build/function unless R_HOME is set properly. He
should be able to provide more specifics.
Alternately, might I suggest that the testing suite unset any R related
env variables before running? Seems like a logical catch-all.
