title: How does one fix: cannot find system Renviron Fatal error: unable to open the base package
body: <p>I've been trying to get all the dependencies I need for R into a directory /isolated on CentOS.</p>
  
  <p>When I run /isolated/usr/bin/R/bin/exec/R I get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>cannot find system Renviron
  Fatal error: unable to open the base package
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've set </p>
  
  <pre><code>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/isolated/usr/lib64:/isolated/usr/lib64/R/lib:/lib64
  export R_HOME_DIR=/isolated/usr/lib64/R
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Would appreciate any insights.</p>
