But now that we are here I took a look, and you "almost" got it right. Your
mistake was in using src/Makevars.in and not using a configure script to
create src/Makevars. So it remained unused.  You can tell: with your
setting
my box did

  g++ -Wl,-S -shared -L/usr/lib/R/lib -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions
-Wl,-z,relro \
     -o Temporal.so MatrixOps.o RcppExports.o -L/usr/lib/R/lib -lR

ie no linking the desired form!  Where once fixed we see

  g++ -std=gnu++11 -Wl,-S -shared -L/usr/lib/R/lib
-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions \
     -Wl,-z,relro -o Temporal.so MatrixOps.o RcppExports.o \
     -fopenmp -llapack -lblas -lgfortran -lm -lquadmath -L/usr/lib/R/lib
-lR

which has the link instruction.

I send you a pull request with the simple fix. If you just the merge button
you should be all set.
