Uwe,

thanks it worked just fine.
I think I was confused by the fact that .Rprofile sets the library path
properly when I use R interactively or it BATCH mode but I need to set my
R_LIBS (in .Renviron worked for me) when I use "R CMD build".

In any case it fixes my problem so many thanks again,

Vincent
