ERROR installing source package RGtk2 on mac os x 10.4.11
Corrado, although you gave use too little information to really help you (we need the full error and config.log at least), I'd like to warn you first that compiling Gtk and RGtk2 from sources is very, very tedious task and only for experts familiar with its intricacies (Gtk has many dependencies, cannot be built universally and requires own versions of several system libraries). We provide binaries for rggobi, RGtk2 as well as Gtk, so unless you have a very good reason for re-compiling RGtk, I'd strongly urge you not to try it. Cheers, Simon

Dear All, I'm trying to install the source package RGtk2 (RGtk2_2.12.5-3.tar.gz) on a i-Mac running os x 10.4.11: Nome modello: iMac Identificatore modello: iMac6,1 Nome processore: Intel Core 2 Duo Velocit? processore: 2.16 GHz Numero di processori: 1 Numero totale di nuclei: 2 L2 Cache (per processore): 4 MB Memoria: 2 GB Velocit? bus: 667 MHz Versione Boot ROM: IM61.0093.B07 Versione SMC: 1.10f3 This is a step needed to use Rattle package, as detailed in: http://datamining.togaware.com/survivor/Installation_Details.html: "...Mac/OSX: download the source package from ggobi,2.12 and run the command line install: Mac/OSX: $ R CMD INSTALL RGtk2_2.8.6.tar.gz (30 minutes) You may not be able to compile RGtk2 via the R GUI on Mac/OSX as the GTK libraries can not be found when gcc is called. Once installed though, R will detect the package--don't try to load it within the GUI as GTK is not a native Mac/OSX application and it will fail. On Mac/OSX be sure to run R from the X11 environment. ..." The installation is performed in a Terminal window with the following command: corradogiannasca$ R CMD INSTALL RGtk2_2.12.5-3.tar.gz There is a long listing in output and the installation fails with the following statement: ............ /usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed make: *** [RGtk2.so] Error 1 chmod: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/library/ RGtk2/libs/i386/*: No such file or directory ERROR: compilation failed for package 'RGtk2' ** Removing '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/ library/RGtk2' CAN ANYONE HELP IN RESOLVING THIS ERROR?
