Couple of points:
1) this is the R-help mailing list. If there is a problem with RStudio, nice as it is it has its own support area.  If the bug can be reproduced without RStudio then this list or one of its sister lists are appropriate. 
2) I don't have RedHat, but I can try this later at home on Ubuntu. 
3) Posting in HTML causes problems. The Posting Guide warns you to post in plain text.  This may be why your request did not show up on the list, where people with red hat might have already seen it by now. 
4) There is an R-sig-Fedora mailing list that might have people with better answers for your possibly-OS-specific question than this OS-neutral mailing list. 
5) I notice that there are several differences here: OS, R version, RStudio edition, and several packages. You might try to bring these into alignment to narrow the possible sources of the trouble.
