We have had reports in the past where build failures occurred when users had non-standard code in their ~/.Rprofile or Rprofile.site (or equivalent) files.
If such code emits text on stdout , the frequent and implicit invocation of Rscript -e "..." to retrieve settings directly from Rcpp will fail.
You may need to uncomment such non-standard code, or protect it by wrapping it inside if (interactive()) , or possibly try to use Rscript --vanilla instead of plain Rscript .
