[Ipopt] ipoptr installation-undefined reference to gxx_personality

[Stefan Vigerske]

Hi,

you might want to check whether you indeed compiled Ipopt with the same 
C/C++/Fortran compilers that R is using.

Further, this line shouldn't be in the linker flags that you posted:
  -LC:\CoinIpopt\build\x64\Ipopt\src\Common\.libs -lcommon
libcommon.a is part of libipopt.

Also libcoinmumps, lapack, blas, metis should be picked up from the same 
directory where the Ipopt library was installed, probably 
C:/CoinIpopt/build/x64/lib, not C:/CoinIpopt/build/x64/ThirdParty/*/.libs
