[Rcpp-devel] Problem Installing RcppExamples on Mac OS X 10.8.1

[Davor Cubranic]

If you're comfortable using the R debugger, maybe you could set 
"options(error=recover)" and see what's going on?

Or, from the error log you included, it appears that RcppClassicLdPath 
is somehow involved. Can you try calling that directly from the console 
and see whether it succeeds?

Lastly, what happens when you run this from R.app GUI, and choose to 
install RcppExamples into the system library instead of your home directory?
