I am irritated myself, as it states on CRAN that RcppClassic is included in the dependencies, but
I didn't have RccpClassic installed, and when I tried to install RcppExamples, it failed with a
not found library.
So I installed RcppClassic and RcppExamples afterwards, and it worked. But I checked just now by
un-installing both, installing RcppExamples installs RcppClassic.

I am just going back to my backuped R package library, and going to try the same.
RcppClassic is there installed as well.

OK - the installation was corrupt. Sorry about the noise here.

Good - thanks.

I do basic stuff with Rcpp, but if I have something usefull, I'll let you know.
