Doing this was easier than expected. I just added --disable-rpath 
to ./configure and that did that. However then, it's not quite as easy after 
all: Now when trying to run I get:

rkward: error while loading shared libraries: libR.so: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

The problem is, I have to link against R, and libR.so is in a non-default 
location (/usr/lib/R/lib/libR.so), which obviously isn't in the library path. 
I don't think I can fix this inside the rkward-package, but rather the 
R-package would need adjusting (maybe a link in /usr/lib). What should I do, 
submit a bug-report for the R-package?

Thanks!
Thomas
