The R-devel build segfaults:

❯ curl -O https://mac.r-project.org/monterey/R-devel/arm64/R-devel.tar.gz
❯ sudo tar xzf R-devel.tar.gz -C /
❯ R -q --vanilla
zsh: killed     R -q --vanilla

That is not a segfault, although they have been seen to cause this behaviour. It more often indicates a security issue: arm64 macOS is prone to doing so with incremental rebuilds of R that it thinks have been tampered with.

Try installing the .pkg. (Downloading from mac.r-project.org is far too slow at the moment for me to do so, but I recall past troubles with the tarballs not seen with Installer packages.)


So does the R-4.1 build:

❯ curl -O 
https://mac.r-project.org/monterey/R-4.1-branch/arm64/R-4.1-branch.tar.gz
❯ sudo tar xzf R-4.1-branch.tar.gz -C /
❯ R -q --vanilla
zsh: killed     R -q --vanilla

The big-sur arm64 builds at
https://mac.r-project.org/big-sur/R-devel/arm64/R-devel.tar.gz
and https://mac.r-project.org/big-sur/R-4.1-branch/arm64/R-4.1-branch.tar.gz
also do the same.

I know that another user has seen this as well, so chances are that it
is not some issue on my machine. Can anyone reproduce this?
