That is not a segfault, although they have been seen to cause this behaviour.? It more often indicates a security issue: arm64 macOS is prone to doing so with incremental rebuilds of R that it thinks have been tampered with.
With the tarball I get a popup telling me ?R.framework? cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
Try installing the .pkg.? (Downloading from mac.r-project.org is far too slow at the moment for me to do so, but I recall past troubles with the tarballs not seen with Installer packages.)
And this evening downloads took a few seconds rather then the 2h predicted when I wrote that. The .pkg I tried is unsigned/not notarized so cannot be installed, not even with 'Open With'. But packages are at least sometimes signed.
So does the R-4.1 build: ? curl -O https://mac.r-project.org/monterey/R-4.1-branch/arm64/R-4.1-branch.tar.gz ? sudo tar xzf R-4.1-branch.tar.gz -C / ? R -q --vanilla zsh: killed???? R -q --vanilla The big-sur arm64 builds at https://mac.r-project.org/big-sur/R-devel/arm64/R-devel.tar.gz and https://mac.r-project.org/big-sur/R-4.1-branch/arm64/R-4.1-branch.tar.gz also do the same. I know that another user has seen this as well, so chances are that it is not some issue on my machine. Can anyone reproduce this? Gabor
