I now believe it has more to do with the recent filesystem crash. I
haven't changed anything in TeX and just a few days ago it worked just
fine.

Are you sure you mean R? I don't have it installed.

I wouldn't know how to check this, because TeXLive consists of a lot
of packages. But I have whatever is the most recent in Fedora 21.

No, because the Fedora  version worked so far. And I'd rather stay with it.

Any document.
