Seems like a bug

== FAILED: Installation ended unsuccessfully (build directory: /software/experimental/build/R/3.1.2/foss-2015a): build failed (first 300 chars): EasyBuild crashed with an error (at easybuild/tools/run.py:382 in parse_cmd_output): cmd "R -q --no-save" exited with exitcode 1 and output:

I think it is missing quotes around the lib path, will add

@rjeschmi: great, thanks for the feedback!

Also retested this myself together with R/3.1.2-foss-2015a from easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs#1357, working great.

It's also serving the purpose of the PoC PR easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs#1384.

Thanks a lot for testing/reviewing this @rjeschmi, and for the fix you provided!

Going in!
