R on mac not installing packages
5 messages · David Winsemius, Brian Ripley, Marc Schwartz +1 more
The system is reporting that it cannot find `make`. It appears that you have not installed XCode on you Mac, or that you did with an earlier version for which you have not updated, or something else which has broken your installation. Please read the MacOS FAQ. (And post further such question on the SIG-Mac mailing list.)

For the record, such information is in the 'R Installation and Administration Manual', as from R-patched (and hence R 2.15.3 and R 3.0.0). See e.g. http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#Mac-OS-X . On recent versions of OS X it is not Xcode you need, but the 'Xcode command-line tools'. These can be installed from inside Xcode (Preferences->Downloads->Components) or separately. For Hmisc you will need a matching Fortran compiler: see that manual.

It seems reasonable to ask however, why he is installing source CRAN packages on OSX when the default OSX install would be binaries, if he installed R by using Simon's OSX binary. If he installed R from source, he should have already had the requisite compiler related tools installed. Perhaps I need more coffee late on a Friday, but something seems inconsistent here.
