This is a handful of fixes I needed so that the RCurl repo I cloned from github would build locally with R CMD INSTALL .. In particular, the fact that two files in R/ were symlinks tripped me up for a bit (since all I got was an opaque "couldn't generate source" error from R).

I should note that the "copy the files over" approach is of course heavy-handed; I'm happy to chat about other ways to handle that. Two plausible choices:

  • Use something like git-subtree to move changes back and forth
  • Put RAutoGenRunTime on CRAN, and make it a dependency
