R 4.1 for my Mac M1 crashing on installing packages

Renato,

just open the Console application (under Utilities) - it has all logs from
your machine - there will be either an R crash log or some entries in the
system log.

As for packages, it will be solved once the R 4.1.0 binaries for arm64 are
released (as soon as all builds finish), but you will have to make sure you
re-install all packages to remove the pre-releases.

Thanks,
Simon

Hi Simon,

I'm happy to, I'm just not sure how to check previous logs...

On another note, and I'm sure this is a problem with the compiler, now

that my packages are installed, the ones I had to compile from the source
cannot be loaded.

Error: package or namespace load failed for ?nlme? in dyn.load(file,

DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):

 unable to load shared object

'/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1-arm64/Resources/library/nlme/libs/nlme.so':

  Referenced from:

/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1-arm64/Resources/library/nlme/libs/nlme.so

  Reason: image not found

Any insights on how that could be solved?

Thanks again for your help,
Renato

Renato,

I'm glad you have work-around, but I'd still like to get to the core of

the issue, we don't want R to crash ;).

Can you, please, check your Console log to see if there is a trace of

the crash and if so, send it to me?

Also are you using R in the Terminal or the R.app GUI?

Thanks,
Simon

Thanks Jeroen, fixing the repo connected me with CRAN (it was

defaulted to

'@CRAN@' I think)!

Cheers,
Renato

Hi all,

I'm new here, so please forgive my clumsy error reporting.

I have just downloaded *R-4.1-branch.pkg* for my Mac M1, as I wanted

to

finally enjoy a native normal-speed R (for some reason running v

4.0.5 on

Rosetta was extremely slow on my machine). I also installed the

latest

XQuartz, as indicated (v 2.8.1).

Sad story is, when I try a simple install.packages command, it first
appears to ignore me, after returning 'Please select a CRAN mirror

for

use

in this session'. if I insist, it crashes. No useful error messages.

Trying

via the Package Installer tab didn't work either. It doesn't find any
packages, indeed it crashes if I ask it to load the list.

This indeed sounds like an xQuartz issue, failing to popup the mirror
selection menu. Does everything work if you manually set your CRAN
mirror first, e.g:

 options(repos=c(CRAN="https://cloud.r-project.org"))

Alternatively you can disable the popup menus all-together using:

 options(menu.graphics=FALSE)

Which should probably be the default.
