what is the current correct repos structure for mac osx binaries?
Please forgive another comment on this topic. The 'type' argument to tools::write_PACKAGES doesn't currently accept the 'mac.binary.mavericks' value. It seems like it should, to make it possible to pass the same 'type' argument to all of the package generation and manipulation functions? > tools::write_PACKAGES(type='mac.binary.mavericks') Error in match.arg(type) : 'arg' should be one of ?source?, ?mac.binary?, ?win.binary? best, -skye

Dear R-devel, Apologies for the confusing typo in the reported paths my previous question, thanks to Simon for providing the answer that the default repository type on the mac is now "mac.binary.mavericks" not "mac.binary" as the docs for install.packages state.
That is incorrect. The default varies by the distribution you use. For the "regular" binary based on 10.6+ it is "mac.binary". For the special Mavericks distribution it is "mac.binary.mavericks".
