Hello,
first, I am very sorry for not answering in a timely manner, the email
address I used for the bug report stopped working without giving me any
notice, and I thought reportbug had failed to submit a bug...
Looking at it again, I see of course that you are right -- there are now two
lines matching R_PAPERSIZE. But despite the bad text that is displayed, at
the substitution seems to work as I have
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> grep PAPER /etc/R/Renviron
## Default printer paper size: first record if user set R_PAPERSIZE
R_PAPERSIZE_USER=${R_PAPERSIZE}
R_PAPERSIZE=${R_PAPERSIZE-'letter'}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> paperconf
letter
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>
which is the right value for me here.
Yes well, letter is the only papersize for which this used to work (no
substitution needed). I had configured a4, and I would get the same
result as yours (that is: letter).
After your patch (with 2.4.0.20061103-1), I am getting:
R_PAPERSIZE_USER='a4'
R_PAPERSIZE=${R_PAPERSIZE-'letter'}
This is not what I expected, I thought I was supposed to get:
R_PAPERSIZE_USER=${R_PAPERSIZE}
R_PAPERSIZE=${R_PAPERSIZE-'a4'}
I now have:
stedding ~ $ echo 'print(options("papersize"))' | R --slave
$papersize
[1] "a4"
stedding ~ $ export R_PAPERSIZE=letter
stedding ~ $ echo 'print(options("papersize"))' | R --slave
$papersize
[1] "a4"
(should be letter I guess)
Thanks for your time, please add this new email address in Cc: to any
answer,
