Is there any way to print out the options that where passed to configure when R was built? I want to build a later version to the one I have on my machine, and I want to build it in the same way, with the same configure options. Thanks.
A one liner that should work on most systems:
grep("configure", readLines(file.path(R.home(), "etc",
"Makeconf")), value=TRUE)

So in English what you are saying is that there's a file called Makeconf in
the etc directory under the R_HOME that contains the information.
That certainly seems to be true for Linux.
Thanks.
