`install_libR_bindings()` is unused? #262

Closed Ilia-Kosenkov closed 1 year ago

Ilia-Kosenkov commented 1 year ago

The new test coverage feature revealed that we practically have no tests for install_libR_bindings(). Upon further investigation, I noticed that this function was introduced ~3 years ago and has not been touched since then (excluding some occasional cleanups). We do not use it internally, so my question is, is it even used? Does it have any use cases in the current environment?
