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 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones> Regards, Marc Schwartz > On Dec 6, 2017, at 8:27 AM, peter dalgaard <pda...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Homebrew is not particularly unrecommended either, but you could get in > trouble with compatibility vs. CRAN package binaries.
