Hi, Peter et al.:

I think the cleanest way is to diddle the /etc/paths.d structure. I have
PeterDaardsiMac:R pd$ ls /etc/paths.d
40-XQuartz R TeX clang8 gfortran
PeterDaardsiMac:R pd$ cat /etc/paths.d/gfortran
/usr/local/gfortran/bin
PeterDaardsiMac:R pd$ cat /etc/paths
/usr/local/bin
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
and the latter would want to be /opt/gfortran/bin for 12.2 (I still have 8.2
for now).
I could not figure out how "to diddle the /etc/paths.d structure",
but I was successful by appending "/opt/gfortran/bin" to etc/paths using
"sudo vi etc/paths". It didn't work immediately nor after I exited and
restarted Terminal, but it did after I rebooted.
There's till a lot I do not understand about this.
readLines('/etc/paths') now returns a character vector of length 8, with
the last string being the one I appended. Meanwhile, "echo $PATH" at a
prompt returned a path with 13 components with "/opt/gfortran/bin" being
number 11, and 'Sys.getenv("PATH")' returned a path with 18 components,
with "/opt/gfortran/bin" being number 12.
Anyway, thanks again to Simon and Peter.
Best Wishes,

Two things to note:
1. The directories in paths.d/* are added to those in /etc/paths in
alphabetical order, so careful with older versions in /usr/local/bin.
2. You (probably) need to logout and back in for the changes to take effect in
your Terminal windows.
Alternatively, you can twiddle the shell startup files (~/.profile /etc/profile
/etc/bashrc ....) directly. The trouble I have with that, is that I never feel
sure that I am doing it in the right place.

1. I need to apologize to Simon: I failed to see his reply to the original
post. Then I found the instructions and installed gfortran-12.2-universal.pkg,
as indicated there, but it still didn't work.
2. I'm not finding clear instructions on how to update the path on macOS 11.7.8, which
is the latest version available for my 2014 MacBook Pro with a 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel
Core i7. I found several pages with differing instructions. I found one in
"support.apple.com" that recommended something that didn't work.[2]
Further suggestions?
Thanks again very much.

[2] "support.apple.com" recommended "PATH=/bin:/sbin:/user/bin:/user/sbin:/system/Library/ export PATH", then "env". I
did "env" to get the current path, than appended ":/opt/gfortran/bin" to that and executed the revised
"PATH=...:/opt/gfortran/bin export PATH". However, when I checked with "env" again, the change was not displayed. I rebooted
with the same result.

AFACT he didn't say so, there was no response, just double-posting of the same
question after is was answered.
The installer says:
The resulting compiler will live in /opt/gfortran and can be called with
/opt/gfortran/bin/gfortran
so it's advisable to have /opt/gfortran/bin on the PATH.
(Side note: the arm64 build of R uses the full path, but some people have been
objecting to that since they wanted to use other compilers for the legacy Intel
builds, but as I suspected that causes other issues, so I'll change that for
the next release).
Cheers,
Simon

AFAICT, Spencer followed the implied instructions and it still didn't work.
There may also be a PATH issue when upgrading to 4.3.x, /usr/local ->
/opt/R/<arch> Does gfortran 12.2 install to /opt/R/.../bin ?

Already answered to you and on R-pkg-devel [9 mins after you posted there - now

To quote from the page you downloaded R from:
This release uses Xcode 14.2/14.3 and GNU Fortran 12.2. If you wish to compile R packages which
contain Fortran code, you may need to download the corresponding GNU Fortran compiler from

Hello, All:
"R CMD check KFAS" under macOS 11.7.8 (the latest version that will run on my aging
Mac) complains "gfortran: command not found".
I just upgraded to R 4.3.1 and installed "gfortran-12.2-universal.pkg" per
"https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/tools/<https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/tools/>".
I expected this to solve the problem. It didn't.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Spencer Graves
p.s. This is my fork of KFAS, available at "https://github.com/sbgraves237/KFAS
