[R] Creating packages in 1.8

[Crispin Miller]

Hi,
Firstly, sorry to reply to my own posting... Also for not having done
more trawling before I sent the original message...

The problems we are having were down to R being installed in a different
directory to the default one (for various sysadmin reasons)...

We've successfully got R runnning on a single machine in the default
directories where it likes to be - it is happy, and 'R CMD check' works
fine... :-)

Alas, this is not a good long-term solution for us can anyone help us
work out the easiest way to get R installed in another directory
structure instead of  the default ones? 

I appreciate that very similar questions have been asked before, but I
suspect that 1.8 is slightly different (since R CMD check ... worked
fine for us in 1.7.1).
