From my terminal, within R, I can require RQuantLib and use it with no problems. However, if I try to require RQuantLib within the R GUI or within my StatET Eclipse, I get:

So quantlib-config is not found.

I don't own (or access) an OS X machine but even I noticed all these hoopla
over 10.10 not setting PATH -- that could be the culprit. Google for
something like

          RStudio "OS X" 10.10 PATH

and you just get pointers.  One trick appears to be to launch RStudio from
the term.app.
