On F15:

        $ r
        bash: r: command not found...
        Similar command is: 'R'
        
        $ which r
        /usr/bin/which: no r in
        (/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/lib64/ccache:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/bin:/home/mjs/bin)
        
        $ whereis r
        r:

It does seem rather unlikely.
