Hi Addy, yes, in R 2.12 the location of the executables files has changed, this makes the HR plugin not working. I'm not a python/R guy, but probably the library that have to catch up is rpy2(?).
In any case there are still unsloved problems in the plugin (Anne, do you confirm?): using an older version of R (2.9.2 is what I observed) is the workaround at the moment.
