Hi,
I am experiencing troubles installing "Hmisc", especially its dependency
"acepack", via
biocLite("acepack")
in R-devel installed from the "R-devel-mavericks-signed.pkg" downloaded
from https://r.research.att.com/.
The error reads:
BioC_mirror: https://bioconductor.org
Using Bioconductor 3.3 (BiocInstaller 1.21.1), R Under development (unstable)
(2015-11-16 r69640).

which indicates that "gfortran-4.8" is missing.
I have however installed the recommended "gfortran-5.2" for El Capitan
from here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries#MacOS
Yesterday, I tried quite some time to install 4.8-versions of gfortran
available from the website above, however they are not compatible with El
Capitan (Error reads: kern.osversion not recognized: ?15.0.0) and searched
through several newsgroups reporting on that issue, I was however not able
to fix that.
Did anyone of the community here experienced similar issues and have some
suggestions for me!?
Thank you very much!
Best,
Ludwig
