Subject: [R-SIG-Mac] RSwitch question
Hi all,
I installed the RSwitch app RSwitch-1.2.dmg from http://r.research.att.com/#other
and installed R-2.13.1 R-2.13-branch-leopard.pkg from http://r.research.att.com
Before installing R-2.13.1 I ran the "forget" command
$ sudo pkgutil --forget org.r-project.R.Leopard.fw.pkg
Password:
Forgot package 'org.r-project.R.Leopard.fw.pkg' on '/'.
then ran the installer. R-2.13.1 starts up when I invoke R.app.
I ran the RSwitch app, selected R-2.12.1 and when I start R.app I see
Error in matrix(NA_character_, 0L, 3L) :
5 arguments passed to .Internal(matrix) which requires 7
R version 2.13.1 Patched (2011-07-24 r56492)

*** caught bus error ***
address 0x7b, cause 'non-existent physical address'
Possible actions:
1: abort (with core dump, if enabled)
2: normal R exit
3: exit R without saving workspace
4: exit R saving workspace
Selection:
On restarting R, with RSwitch still pointed at R-2.12.1, I get a command prompt
after the error messages above. Entering searchpaths() I see
[1] ".GlobalEnv"
[2] "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.12/Resources/library/datasets"
[3] "Autoloads"
[4] "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/library/base"
I am unclear as to why I am seeing R-2.13.1 after attempting to switch back to R-2.12.1.
Any one else having this issue?
Did I miss some part of setting this up appropriately?
Any info appreciated.
Best
