such a great idea. The 3.0.1.p1 patch gives (on Debian amd64 testing) an
executable which is unable to install some packages using external
libraries ( among them tcl/tk, curl, sqlite3 and more important, cpp
libraries). I had oddles of trouble trying to install packages depending
on RcppArmadillo. Reverting to the 3.0.1.p0 patch solved this problem.

That's really strange.
The difference between the p0 and the p1 has nothing to do with
*LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
It merely triggers an upstream compilation option on Cygwin only.
Not on any other OS (unless uname on that os contains CYGWIN which would
be strange outside of Cygwin).
Just have a look at [attachment:r-3.0.1.p1.diff]...
Nor has the diff between the p0 and the previous 2.* R version.
The *LD_LIBRARY_PATH comes from $SAGE_ROOT/spkg/bin/sage-env (or
$SAGE_LOCAL, too lazy to check) or R itself, not from the spkg scripts.
If you're not convinced, just grep them.
