Hi there. I am having compilation problems with R 3.0.2 (and R 3.0.3) on OS X 10.9.2. Everything seems to work up to the installation of recommended R packages. At that point, the make fails. In particular, after running "R CMD INSTALL MASS.tgz" (directly or the essentially equivalent but multi-optioned version that is run via the Makefile), I end up with the following fatal error:
Warning in read.dcf(fd <- file.path(pkg, "DESCRIPTION")) : > cannot open compressed file > './RtmpeHPfcG/R.INSTALLb9055b3c3f45/MASS/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No > such file or directory' > Error: error reading file > './RtmpeHPfcG/R.INSTALLb9055b3c3f45/MASS/DESCRIPTION' For more detailed output of "configure" and "make" please see the output from these failed homebrew installations (which are essentially identical with what I get when I try to install from CRAN-provided source): for R 3.0.2: https://gist.github.com/bprenne/8626679 for R 3.0.3: https://gist.github.com/bprenne/9405569 Someone on the homebrew team recommended I contact people via an R list ( https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-science/issues/640), so here I am. I also tried setting R_INSTALL_TAR to the system tar or to a homebrew-installed gnutar. Neither helped. Any suggestions on how I might proceed?
