Hi Chuan,

Thanks for reposting on list.

Ok. That is one way.  A slightly safer way might be to stick to released
versions from CRAN for both Rcpp and RInside.

The mix of forward and backward slashes has me a little worried. What creates
the backslashes?

That is probably something you need to look into.  Romain and I only use
systems that have R built as a shared library: Debian / Ubuntu, Fedora, OS X.

Because RInside wants to attempt R, we need R as a shared library.  You may
want to look into getting a different binary of R, or building your own.
Maybe the r-sig list for Fedora/Red Hat can help.
