Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 I don't know anything about R, but this looks more complicated to me.
 When I look at R.sh.in, right after the #SAGEHACK# part, I see
 {{{
 R_HOME="${R_HOME_DIR}"
 export R_HOME
 R_SHARE_DIR="${R_HOME_DIR}/share"
 export R_SHARE_DIR
 R_INCLUDE_DIR="${R_HOME_DIR}/include"
 export R_INCLUDE_DIR
 R_DOC_DIR="${R_HOME_DIR}/doc"
 export R_DOC_DIR
 }}}
 When I install the spkg, every instance of {{{R_HOME_DIR}}} gets replaced
 with the hard-coded full path to SAGE_LOCAL/lib/R, rather than being kept
 as R_HOME_DIR.  Doesn't this defeat the purpose #SAGEHACK#?  Won't things
 go wrong if you move the whole Sage installation?

 Anyway, I see the same error "/lib/R//etc/ldpaths: No such file or
 directory" if I run R.  If I apply the patch above, it works on one
 machine (an Intel Mac running OS X 10.6), but on another (also a mac, same
 OS) I get an error
 {{{
 dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.2.dylib
   Referenced from: /Applications/sage/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib
   Reason: image not found
 Trace/BPT trap
 }}}
 Indeed, libgfortran is not in /usr/local/lib, I think it's only in
 /Applications/sage/local/lib.

 I'll post the patch anyway, in case it helps.  New spkg at
 [http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/palmieri/SPKG/r-2.10.1.p5.spkg].  If
 this works, please mark the ticket as "needs review" and add the URL to
 the ticket description, so the release manager can find it.
