Dear all,

I was willing to use the library "rgl" to plot some 3D graphics, but 
unfortunately, I wan't able to instal the library. The error message is below.

I would be very grateful if you could give me any clues about how I can solve 
this.


Below you will find :
- installation from binaries
- installation from sources
- sessionInfo()


The error messages in the"sources" install dialog suggests a problem with your 
system installation of freetype. I was running rgl v0.92.861 on Leopard without problems. 
I just tried installing the current version offered to the GUI installer, v0.92.880, 
restarting and got an error on attempting to load while in version 2.14.2,

After updating R to the current version I am able to install rgl_0.92.892 from 
binary using the GUI Package Installer and then load  and run code in either 
R64 or 32-bit R.

You have a fairly full system. I wonder if you should restart and try with a 
few less packages?

And as Duncan suggested, you _should_ be posting on the R-SIG-Mac list.

Yes. The new CRAN binaries work for me too (and are in the non-X11 version if 
run from the R app). For source compiles, I think you need to follow the hint 
about libraries for dependencies at the bottom of 
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/.

I believe we have seen the R_decompress1 error before, though. If you can 
reproduce it, it might be worth digging deeper --- over on R-sig-Mac.

It almost always indicates a corrupted lazyload database. One way to corrupt it is to update the package whilst it is in use (which corrupts it for the running session, at least).
