Fedora Linux R_HOME ('/opt/R-devel/lib64/R') not found

When running rhub::check_for_cran() for https://github.com/gjmvanboxtel/gsignal, I get this error

Build ID: | gsignal_0.3-1.tar.gz-57bbaba0c7d84b39bc2bd789bd3a3d48

Anyone else seeing this?

Yes, I can reproduce this.

Seems like the Docker container or R-devel is broken. Let me try to build another one.

Fails here: https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/0f0092adf14b8bd17bcce1cac0ee26b928355dab/src/scripts/R.sh.in#L263

Apparently test -x behaves differently on Fedora 34:

❯ docker run -ti fedora:latest
[root@f944f25b16b4 /]# test -x /tmp/
[root@f944f25b16b4 /]# echo $?
1

and on Fedora 33:

❯ docker run -ti fedora:33
[root@ea55a1b92215 /]# test -x /tmp/
[root@ea55a1b92215 /]# echo $?
0

Wow. We can switch back to building on Fedora 33 I guess.

OK, this is fixed, but of course there is also #462....
