[R-sig-Fedora] R 3.1 breaks RStudio in Fedora 20?

[Martyn Plummer]

This looks like a change in the way the the R RPM is built, not a change
in R itself. The new RPM relies directly on external BLAS and LAPACK and
does not build its own. That is a legitimate choice, so the best course
of action is to inform RStudio.
