I wanted to install the package "gdata". Here are the commands I gave and the
responses:

install.packages("gdata")
Warning in install.packages("gdata") :
  argument 'lib' is missing: using '/Users/dbae/Library/R/library'

The downloaded packages are in
        /tmp/RtmpwY5Qor/downloaded_packages
> library(gdata)
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : 
  unable to load shared library
'/Users/dbae/Library/R/library/gtools/libs/ppc/gtools.so':
  dlopen(/Users/dbae/Library/R/library/gtools/libs/ppc/gtools.so, 6):
Library not loaded:

  Referenced from: /Users/dbae/Library/R/library/gtools/libs/ppc/gtools.so
  Reason: image not found
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'gdata'

I took a look in /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/
and, indeed, there was a directory "library" but no directory "lib". The
file /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/lib/libR.dylib
is present, but apparently that's not good enough. Any ideas on how I can
make this work?

I am running R 2.8.0 GUI 1.26 (5256) under MacOsX 10.4.11 on a G4 PPC
machine.

Thanks for any help.
David
