R is using /private/tmp/* to install libraries and compile C scripts. I need to change where that is done because of permission issues on my machine. How can I change this?

I remember there is a solution and I believe it involved setting something in .Renviron, but I cannot find it.

checking for endianness... little
checking for cat... /bin/cat
checking whether the C++ compiler works... no
