# RD: Install normal R-devel.
#
# This R installation is slightly different from the ones that follow. It is
# configured with the recommended packages, and has those packages installed
# packages to library/ (not site-library/). These packages will be shared with
# the other RD* installations that follow. For all the RD* installations
# (including this one), all packages installed after buildR.sh runs will be
# installed to each installation's site-library/.
#
# I've set it up this way because the "recommended" packages take a long time
# to compile and in most cases aren't involved in debugging the low-level
# problems that this Dockerfile is for, so it's OK to compile them once and
# share them. Other packages, like those installed by the user and Rcpp
# (*especially* Rcpp), are often of interest -- they are installed for each
# RD* installation, and code is compiled with whatever compiler settings are
# used for each RD* installation.
RUN /tmp/buildR.sh

# Install some commonly-used packages to a location used by all the RD*
# installations. These packages do not have compiled code and do not depend on
# packages that have compiled code.

# Finally, install some common packages specific to this build of R.
