[R] [Rd] I do not want that R CMD build removes temp directory

[Witold E Wolski]

Thank you Simon,

It seems not to be related to the R package but rather to the OS,
(just got the same error when installing the shiny R package from
CRAN).
I am on an M1 mac running Windows ARM in Parallels. Installed a
x86_64-w64 R version.



"** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package 'shiny'
* removing 'C:/Users/witoldwolski/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.2/shiny'
Warning in install.packages :"
