Public bug reported: /usr/lib/R/site-library/Rcmdr/etc/linux/Rcmdr.sh is installed with mode 644, which makes the link from Apps|Science fail complaining about its being unable to create the child process for the console window. A simple sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/R/site-library/Rcmdr/etc/linux/Rcmdr.sh solves this.
