>The R libraries (in /usr/lib/R/lib) only include libRlapack.so and libR.so
This is pretty strange as libRblas.so is provided by the r-base-core package (/usr/lib/R/lib/libRblas.so) which is a required dependency of littler (and r-base).
Note that r-base is just a meta package and in principle can be safely removed.
