The problem is the path to the *style file* sitting in
$RHOME/share/texmf, so having the packages in a different place has
nothing to do with it. It is also not really necessary to relocate R
itself, you just have to move the style file to some place where latex
finds it (e.g., by including $RHOME/share/texmf in your TEXINPUTS path
... but that will make troubles when the path contains spaces and we
are back at the beginning).
