hi,

right now, there's a show-stopping bug in the mac bundle of rkward (thanks to
frederik an aaron for patiently trying to get it to run...).

i've investigated the symptoms, and the origin of RKWard not starting at all
seems to be that

  /opt/rkward/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources

is not a symlink to

  .../Resources -> Versions/Current/Resources

as it should be (as this is where R is looked for), but a standard directory,
containing only the packages rkward and rkwardtests. you can actually fix this
by moving both packages and creating the correct symlink:

  cd /opt/rkward/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/
  sudo mv Resources/library/rkward Versions/Current/Resources/library/
  sudo mv Resources/library/rkwardtests Versions/Current/Resources/library/
  rm -rf Resources
  sudo ln -s Versions/Current/Resources ./Resources

but of course the question is why this is happening in the first place, and
how this can be fixed. i think it's something to do with the order of packages
being processed, and that RKWard is unpacked before R-framework, so it created
the not-yet-existing folder and later R-framework cannot replace it.

maybe a quickfix can be moving the two RKWard packges to
.../Versions/2.15/Resources/library -- well, but that will of course break
soon.

trouble is, i'll be on my way to the conference soon, so i need to get this
fixed until tomorrow, somehow...
