VSCode-R-Debugger: 'R path not working: /usr/local/bin/R (Can be changed in setting r.rpath.XXX)'

Description R Debugger doesn’t see the R executable, even though the correct R path has been given?

To Reproduce

1. Install the prerequisites (R, VSCode, the R extension for VSCode)
2. Install R Debugger, along with dependencies
3. Create a new folder, with a simple R file, test.R, with something like below
4. Try to run said code

Your R code

test.R

print(hello world')
a <- 2 + 2

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Mac OS 12.0 (M1 based)
• R Version: R version 4.1.2 (2021-11-01) – “Bird Hippie”
• vscDebugger Version: vscDebugger_0.4.7
• vscode-r-debugger Version: v0.4.7

Additional context I’m new to VS Code, coming from RStudio, so I may have messed something up here, however, I’ve tried installing it three times now (reinstalling VSCode, with no luck!). Don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

The path to R is the one in the title, I’ve double checked! I’ve added the path to both the rterm and rpath options in settings, and it doesn’t work, nor does removing both. VS Code can see the R binary for the terminal, but the debugger seemingly cannot see it
