Re: passing LC_ALL environment variable to org export call

[Johannes Rainer <johannes.rainer@gmail.com>]

hi Rasmus,

thanks for your hint. I checked Sys.getenv before and after the failing code, but LC_ALL was always properly set. I’m afraid my problem relates to some Mac LLVM and GCC gfortran compiler thing, since I’m using a R version compiled against the Mac Accelerate framework (vecLib)… it is just so strange that I only get the error in Emacs org-mode upon exporting the org file, but not, if I evaluate each code chunk separately.

to set all environment variables I’m using the “exec-path-from-shell” extension, so, all environment settings from the shell are available in Emacs.
