Any workaround for CRAN Mac OS X compiler switch to R 2.10.0?
This has been discussed on the R-sig-mac email list. The short answer is that something bad happened (bad = R-devel was used to compile CRAN packages) and Simon (who is maintaining this) was traveling. He is working on the problem now. A fix should happen "soon". Kasper

Hello, Has the CRAN compiler for Mac OS X switched to using R 2.10? I recently uploaded an update for the package I maintain to CRAN, and it's no longer possible to run the package after installing CRAN binaries for this package under Mac OS X 10.5 and R 2.9.1. The package is picante 0.7-1. It passes all checks on CRAN cleanly. Under R 2.9.1 on Mac OS X 10.5, the package can be installed from CRAN binaries, but fails to load (see example output at end of this message). This can be worked around by installing from source. The error seems to be related to looking for and not finding the file "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.10/Resources/lib/ libR.dylib" when installed from binaries. Is anyone else experiencing this, and is there some workaround? Thanks, Steve Code to replicate this problem (R 2.9.1, Mac OS X 10.5):
