Kernel dying with every plotting command #96
Description
I am having a problem where the kernel dies every time I attempt to plot something. In the terminal where I am running the server, I get the following:
dev.new(): using pdf(file="Rplots2.pdf")
Error in file(con, "rb") : cannot open the connection
Calls: <Anonymous> ... <Anonymous> -> repr_pdf.recordedplot -> readBin -> file
In addition: Warning messages:

Execution halted
Generally a file called Rplot.pdf is created in the working directory when this happens. The file usually contains the plot, though sometimes it doesn't and the file isn't readable. I haven't identified in what cases this happens.
I note if I use png() or pdf() to write to a file it works fine.
I installed IRKernel as instructed in the README, except to install the rzmq package I did git clone --recursive and devtools::install().
