Could someone remind me how to control the libraries and the search order used by 'R CMD INSTALL'? I need to override the usual order to resolve a conflict on the old SGI I'm working with. There must be something I can do with configure-args, right? And what is the syntax for using multiple configure-args? Thanks, Debby

Set the environment variable R_LIBS. In emacs I use (setenv "R_LIBS" "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library:/usr/local/lib/R/library")

My first thought too, but Debby would know that, I suspect. Perhaps LD_LIBRARY_PATH is more to the point? Re. configure-args, can't you just do --configure-args="FEE=foe FIE=fum" ?
