I often face the issue that I have to switch between different R versions. Gladly, rig makes this easy but I also use radian for years. So I thought that I could easily combine the best of both worlds by linking radian to the currently in use version of R installed through rig. But when I do that by using radian --r-binary=/opt/R/current/lib/R to link radian to the currently default R version 4.1.3, I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/user303/.local/bin/radian", line 8, in
sys.exit(main())
^^^^^^
File "/home/user303/.local/pipx/venvs/radian/lib/python3.11/site-packages/radian/app.py", line 52, in main

raise RuntimeError("R binary ({}) does not exist.".format(os.environ['R_BINARY']))
RuntimeError: R binary (/opt/R/current/lib/R) does not exist.
Which is strange because it does exist. If I start RStudio instead of VSC + radian it works like intendet.
However it gets more strange if I check the radian version radian --version:
radian version: 0.6.9
r executable: /opt/R/4.1.3/lib/R/bin/R
r version: 4.1.3
python executable: /home/user303/.local/pipx/venvs/radian/bin/python
python version: 3.11.2
With this I thought radian would use the desired version despite the error message above. So I started VSC, opened a new R terminal and typed R.version and got:
platform x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
arch x86_64
os linux-gnu
system x86_64, linux-gnu

You can imagine that I'm very confused and I appreciate any help.
