[R] Build a package on one Mac but unable to load this on another Mac

2014-10-18 Thread althu07
Hi, I build a package on one Mac. I can install the package on another Mac
but it cannot be loaded. The following is the error message.

Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
unable to load shared object
'/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.1/Resources/library/mypkgfe/libs/mypkgfe.so':
dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.1/Resources/library/mypkgfe/libs/mypkgfe.so,
6): Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.3.dylib
Referenced from:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.1/Resources/library/mypkgfe/libs/mypkgfe.so
Reason: image not found
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘mypkgfe’

If I install the gfortran on the user's Mac, the package can be installed
and loaded successfully. But I don't think this is a good option to solve
this problem as it requires too much on the user's end. Is there anyway to
build the package so that it can be successfully loaded even the Mac
doesn't have gfortran preinstalled?

It seems the Mavericks OS X can load the package but not the Snow Leopard
OS X. I am wondering if this has anything to do with the fact that R for
Snow Leopard doesn't include GNU Fortran.

Thanks!

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!

You could include just that library in your distribution, and change the 
dynamic link path using install_name_tool. I assume how to do so in detail is 
beyond the intended scope of this mailing list.

In fact you just need to change the path, as that library is included in 
the CRAN R distribution (which I guess is what it being used, although 
no one said which R it was).  Look in 
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/lib  


It is also most likely possible to link against a static libgfortran, as 
we do on Windows.


But this is indeed the wrong list: see the posting guide which it seems 
neither of you have read.  Follow-ups to R-sig-mac
