Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Using R on MacOS Catalina.....

[Simon Urbanek]

Matthias,

CRAN R and all packages rely on absolute paths to the framework - that's why we 
don't allow any other location. However, the is nothing preventing you from 
moving it elsewhere and using a symlink. So your best bet is to install it and 
then move
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework
anywhere you want and create a symlink from there to the new location. If you 
don't even have enough space for a temporary install, you can use the tar balls 
provided at http://mac.r-project.org/ and unpack them on your secondary volume 
and create symlinks yourself. In that case, you will likely also want to create 
a symlink from /usr/local/bin/R to Resources/bin/R inside the framework - this 
is normally done by the installer script. FWIW, you can see the full 
postinstall script which is run by the installer here:
https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/QA/Simon/R-build/packaging/leopard/scripts/postflight

In theory, you can also just symlink /Library/Frameworks and then install - I 
have not tested that but it should also work.

Cheers,
Simon

[Matthias Krawutschke]

Patrick,

thank you so much for your help /answer.

But the “official” R on this WebSite doesn´t allow to install the software on 
an other Volume (I wrote that in my first eMail).

 

YES, 256 GB is a lot for a MAC, but if you have less than 50% free of your 
harddisk, the system goes slow, because it is a SSD – HardDrive………

So it is better to install the software on an other HardDisk /Volume….. and it 
is faster 

 

HomeBrew is nice, that´s right, but I don´t want to install that.

Why not use the official installer and adjust the installation path?

 

https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/

 

Also allows multiple versions being installed, all from the CLI (but I guess

256GB is a normal size for a disk, don't see the problem. 90% of all macs

Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Using R on MacOS Catalina.....

[Spencer Graves]

  I haven't followed this entire thread, but I'm running macOS 
10.15.2 Catalina on a 2014 MacBookPro, and I haven't had problems 
downloading the latest version of R.  Roughly a month ago, I clicked 
"R-3.6.2.pkg" on "https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/macosx/".  It 
downloaded to my "Downloads" directory.  Then I double-clicked on it, 
and it opened.  I can't remember, but I may have had to click and drag 
the icon to the "Applications" folder.  And I may have had to enter my 
password to assure macOS that it was OK to run that application.  I may 
have had problems with this a few years ago, but I haven't had a problem 
recently.  However, I may misunderstand your question.

256GB is a normal size for a disk, don't see the problem. 90% of all macs

Homebrew R differs slightly from the official R installer and might cause

If you say Debian, Fink is more appropriate.  Fink uses apt-get and .deb 
format.  One good thing is Fink allows you to install multiple versions of R.

Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Using R on MacOS Catalina.....

[el]

First of all 256 Gig is huge, as far as Homebrew is concerned. I have had 
homebrew installed
even on very old systems with no more than that.

Secondly, drag the sucker over to the iStore or Gravis and have them bang a 
proper SSD in. Been there, done that.

Or, thirdly, install minimal Homebrew and then look under /usr/local and /opt, 
what it uses, move them to another Volume and symlink/mount them accordingly.

Why is this so complicated? Not unfamiliar says the German in me. But then I am 
only an elderly Gynecologist not doing high performance computing.

Homebrew is Linux-style packaging for OS X. Think of it as an equivalent to

Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Using R on MacOS Catalina.....

[Matthias Krawutschke]

Eberhard,

thank you so much for your quick response. 

Yes, my MacBook has only 256 GB HDD (Standard) ☹
Oh, well, I know & I don´t use X-Code as well. I take the small version of 
that: xcode-select --install
(It installed only the command-line tools, header, etc. for using their own 
c-compiler)

Hm, I never used "Homebrew" - I come from the UNIX - World and I like the 
command-line .
Well, I can create the files for R via "make" - after them it breaks the 
installation ☹

Best regards

Matthias,

A Mac with Catalina and a small hard disk?

I use the Homebrew package manager and while there is a short delay between R 
and Homebrew this works out very well.  It has two options, one with out the 
app, which is what I use because I for GUI I use RStudio exclusively.

There is really no need to compile from source :-)-O XCode is huge, though the 
XCode command line tools are required.

Gruss aus dem Süden :-)-O

[R-SIG-Mac] Using R on MacOS Catalina.....

[Matthias Krawutschke]

Hello everybody,

 

I am new at this Mailinglist and I have a question about R on MacOS Catalina.

On your Website I had found a package for R. If I want to install it on my 
MacBook – the program told me, that I can´t install the software

on an other volume like “system”….. That is bad, because I had a small Volume 
on my MacBook ☹

 

If I want to compile the R-System new with GNU-C Compiler 9.2.0 – I can “make” 
the files, but “make install” return it with an ERROR.

So, did you have any ideas what kind of problems that here I had?

 

I thank you very much for your assistance and have a nice day…..

 

Herzlichst grüßt Sie das HPC - Team
