severity 982465 wishlist thanks
I am sorry but I simply see no bug in package r-base here. The RcppParallel maintainer tried a Debian-local modification to that CRAN package. That didn't work, and now fingers are pointed at r-base. Which is simply not the right way to go about this as package RcppParallel is fine at CRAN (see [1], ignore upcoming issues such the Apple M1 chip). I could and maybe should close this, but let's maybe keep it open and come back to it once RcppParallel 5.1.0 is released as some of the underlying libraries have changed or will change again under Intel oneAPI (I lost track). I will leave it to the RcppParallel to decide whether he wants working Debian package (by just packaging RcppParallel) or perfect technical purity by not including a system library yet ending up with a package that doesn't work (which was the source of this bug report).
