You permissions are odd - this is not what installed R looks like, you should see ginaz:Versions$ ls -l total 8 drwxrwxr-x 6 root admin 204 Mar 26 2010 2.12 drwxrwxr-x 6 root admin 204 Jul 12 15:44 2.13 drwxrwxr-x 6 root admin 204 Oct 2 11:01 2.14 drwxrwxr-x 6 root admin 204 Oct 3 12:05 2.15 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 4 Oct 3 12:05 Current -> 2.15 so run chown -Rh root:admin /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/ followed by to fix that.
followed by what? With "chown -Rh root:admin /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/" I get a lot of output of the form: ... chown: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework//library/Rcpp/unitTests/runit.Module.client.package.R: Operation not permitted ...
I should have said "run as root" or simply sudo chown ...
