3-R.app available at http://r.research.att.com/ is 5426 but 5455 32 and 64 bit available at http://r.research.att.com/R-GUI-5455-2.9-leopard-Leopard.dmg as per 8/6/09 r-sig-mac discussion so I put in 5455; but why 5426 here and 5455 there?
Can't help you there. I have the 2.9.0 GUI [R.app GUI 1.29 (5463) x86_64-apple-darwin9.7.0] running with the R 2.9.1 Patched and am not having noticeable difficulties. My guess is that the "right" way to do this would be to use 5426 with R 2.9.2
And my guess appears to be wrong. I installed the current R-2.9- branch-leopard-universal.tar.gz using Lianglou's confrmation of my suggestion that sudo might need to prefix the ta command. Also downloaded the Mac OS X GUI rev. 5426 for R 2.1.xleopard- Leopard64.dmg file and dragged the R.app file to another loaction, renamed it R64new,app, and dragged it to the Applications folder. That GUI crashes while the old one launches R just fine. My newly installed R says it is R version 2.9.1 Patched (2009-07-04 r48897) but I seem to remember Urbanek saying that is misleading and that it really is 2.9.2
No, I never said that :). I had posted the correct link here before: http://r.research.att.com/R-GUI-5473-2.9-leopard-Leopard64.dmg Please DO note the 2.9 in the name! Clearly taking the R-devel version of the GUI with R 2.9.2 is not supposed to work ...
Note to web page maintainer. The labels on the R-GUI's must be wrong, they say "R 2.1.x". Is that supposed to say R 2.9.x and 2.10.x?
2.1.x is supposed to say 2.10.x (hence R-devel, really) - it's just a glitch in the script that generates the names on build which assume one-character versions. I was hoping that common sense would be applied here since the builds are R-2.9-patched and R-devel it should be obvious that one is 2.9.x and the other 2.10.x ... Cheers, Simon PS: Sometime this week I hope to get some spare time to create the SL- safe R 2.9.2 package installer to save the suffering early adopters ;). The real blame should go to Apple for screwing up Java so badly, though ... ;)
