Re: [R-SIG-Mac] R 3.4.3 binaries

Hi all,
Joseph... you seem to have all the expertize to be the new maintener ;)
Marc

Le 06/12/2017 à 18:21, Balamuta, James Joseph a écrit :

Greetings and Salutations All,

First off, I want to say I really appreciate all the work that goes into making 
R available on macOS. I realize that this is a time intensive process. However, 
this is now the second consecutive time the macOS binary release has lagged 
behind other platforms. As a result, would it be possible to add another 
maintainer? Even more so, could we please update the macOS section of CRAN to 
reflect the present status of the build? Some information is severely outdated. 
In particular, on the tools page, there still is a link to gfortran-4.2.3 – 
which hasn’t been used since R 3.0.0 (?) --  and an installer for the custom 
compiler clang4 toolchain has yet to appear. If there is a public repository or 
a means to submit a patch to address these issues I would be more than happy to 
help since the current setup greatly impacts being able to introduce students 
to HPC and interfacing with external libraries.

Sincerely,

JJB

Re: [R-SIG-Mac] R 3.4.3 binaries

2017-12-06 Thread Marc Schwartz
Hi,

FWIW, the key R related issue with High Sierra, fixed in 3.4.3, relates to the 
setting of the time zone in R.

An easy work around was posted some time ago, which is to put:

  Sys.setenv(TZ = "YourTime/Zone")

in your ~/.Rprofile, so that the TZ is set with a new R session.

A list of TZ's is available here:

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones 


Regards,

Marc Schwartz

Re: [R-SIG-Mac] R 3.4.3 binaries

2017-12-06 Thread Luis Puerto
You’re right Peter. At least from my perception, I’m quite novice, Homebrew is 
quite good covered and supported. Besides, right now R is part of Homebrew 
core, so there is a good amount of people taking care of the installation 
scripts. I’ve had myself some problems in the past, and rJava and Java, like 
any other installation, give you problems from time to time. But usually are 
they are fixed in a couple of days. 

It’s very true that if you use the Homebrew to install R, you aren’t free of 
problems down that road, and you need to know more or less what are you doing. 
When you compile R you need to compile most of the packages you download and 
sometimes there is problems from time to time. 

Anyhow, I agree, that the more people knowing R at lower level the better. 

There are several tutorials out there about how to install R with Homebrew and 
get you what some people call a “100% Homebrew R Edition”. I want to write my 
own soon since there is none there for High Sierra. 

If people is interested I can share here too. 

Finally, have a good Finnish Independence and Spanish Constitution day to you 
all.

I’ve under High Sierra and I’ve noticed zero issues on my install. I want to 
stress that I’ve in particularly noticed zero issues. Perhaps we use different 
R packages and use it in different way. :)

Hi Federico, 

I know that it isn’t recommended by R Core Group, but you can always instal it 
from source using Homebrew. I’ve believe that there is even a bottle already 
and you don’t need to compile. I’m not sure. 

I’ve using a pure Homebrew install in my Mac and runs faster then the CRAN one, 
with openBlas and OpenMP.
