Peter,

you have probably compiled ncl in 64-bit (default on SL) but you're using
32-bit R, so it won't work. Either use 64-bit R or compile ncl for
32-bit.

I suspected something obvious of the like. Unfortunately, I've not been able to get 64 bit R working for me. When I try the following for the CRAN
version:

Birch$ R --arch x86_64
/usr/bin/R: line 207:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/etc/x86_64/ldpaths: No such
file or directory


Yes, CRAN R is 32-bit only.

Yes, this makes sense, but I was a bit confused by this comment on
r.research.att.com

"Leopard builds, 64-bit binaries and packages are becoming available from CRAN as of R 2.8.0."
Does that mean r.research.att.com ?

No, the package binaries are available directly from CRAN:
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/


 I don't find a link on CRAN.


So I got the 2.9.2 patched version distributed as a tar.gz from
<http://r.research.att.com/> (thanks for providing this Simon!), but that doesn't work with the 64bit GUI build on the same site (it won't even
launch, because it need 2.10.0).


Oh, true, the 2.9 GUI is simply not there. I'll have to look to see what
went wrong.

Thanks!


Hm.. the builds are in fact there on the build machine, but are missing from the website index ... some more digging needed ...

Please use the direct link in the meantime:
http://r.research.att.com/R-GUI-5473-2.9-leopard-Leopard64.dmg



So I installed the 32/64 Universal 2.9.0,

[BTW: you can simply overwrite the installation with the 2.9.2 patched binary to upgrade it - the only part you really needed from the universal
package was the GUI]

Okay, I was concerned there might be a version mismatch between 2.9.2
and the 2.9.0 gui so I didn't do that.

Patch-level releases of R are [supposed to be] binary-compatible, so it should be safe.


BTW is the repository for the GUI public?

Yes, see FAQ:

2.4 How to build and install the R.app
The sources for the R.app GUI are currently not included in the global R source distribution. They are available in the form of a Xcode project on the R for Mac OS X CRAN pages (released versions) as well as the SVN repository. In order to check out the latest development version, use

svn co https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/Mac-GUI


I see the .tar on CRAN.


but now building any package gives errors [1] perhaps because SL doesn't
install ppc64 libraries?

Yes, unfortunately. The hot fix is
rm -rf /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/exec/ppc*

Brilliant!  This works perfectly.  Thank you for not only contributing
software but patiently helping me understand it.


Sure, you're welcome.

Cheers,
Simon




I the same (or similar warning) using the R-devel nightly.

I apologize if this to is obvious. When I install xcode, do I need to
install the tools for prior OSs to get ppc compilers?


The compilers are there all right, it's the libraries that are missing. They
are now only part of the 10.5 SDK in Xcode which is not used by R.

Cheers,
Simon

I'm running 10.6 from clean install, with the supplied Xcode, and R
2.9.2.  I am unable to build a package (specifically the phylobase
package [1]) which built fine under 10.5.8. Even more confusingly it seems to build fine for others using 10.6. The end of the install
log (appended below) contains the these potentially informative
errors:

ld: warning: in ncl/ncl/.libs/libncl.a, file is not of required
architecture
ld: warning: duplicate dylib /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib

The latter error I get with any source package, but doesn't seem to
prevent them from being installed.

The package also makes use of the Rcpp interface to use an included library (NCL). It is this included library that seems to not build
correctly, which could very well be related to the old version of
Rcpp, or the makefiles responsible for building it.

I've tried all manner of tweaking, upgrading, and list searching, but the (probably obvious) solution still eludes me. Any pointers in the
right direction are greatly appreciated.
