Full_Name: Pan Du Version: 2.3.0 OS: Mac OS X 10.4.6 Submission from: (NULL) (165.124.152.227) Hi, I just downloaded the latest R2.3.0 for Mac. When I tried to install R.app GUI 1.15, it told me "You cannot install R GUI for Mac OS X on this volume. Requires Mac OS X 10.4.4 or higher." But actually I am using Mac OS X 10.4.6, which is higher than 10.4.4. Is there anyone knows what the problem is? BTW, all other packages were installed smoothly. Thanks a lot! Best, Pan

Indeed there is a bug in that PackageMaker that causes the individual installer for Packages/R-GUI.pkg to fail (SpecType should be plist not bundle). Please use the regular R package instead (R.mpkg) - that should work. FWIW: If R.app is all you want, you may in fact just get it from the nightly page ( http://R.research.att.com ), because as it appears it has an important bug fix: http://R.research.att.com/R-GUI-3114-2.3-Deployment.dmg Cheers, Simon
