As far as Macs are concerned there are two forks in the R versions: one running on Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion and the other running on Mavericks and Yosemite. If you submit the package to CRAN it will build two different versions using the correct toolchains (and the correct XQuartz and Java packages). If you are doing this on your own, you will need to have two different versions each with the correct toolchains. This is something that is described in the admin documents. And future questions should go to the correct mailing list: R-SIG-Mac: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac > > Thanks! > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] And like rhelp, R-SIG-Mac is a plain text mailing list. > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
