Bob,
You ran the betas. On issues like this, that could be a big difference. So
Im not sure it is yet an issue that could be user dependent.
Best,
Kasper

I've been running Catalina since the first beta and upgraded to GM the day

had no issues with R nor XQuartz.
I read through the links provided and, while I do have said symlink in the
relocated items folder Apple creates (this is new behavior for the GM), it
gets re-created fine for me & XQuartz works fine (and the minor pkg deps I
have installed that use it also work fine.
This would appear to be a YMMV situation.

Hi All,
Perhaps I missed something relevant along the way someplace, but I ran
the upgrade to Catalina (10.15) last night. I wanted to give folks a heads
up on an issue that you may face, especially if you have XQuartz installed
alongside R.
One of the sequelae of the upgrade is that some files may get relocated
during the upgrade, likely in part due to the macOS SIP.
In my case, this involved the symlink for XQuartz, 'usr/X11R6', which
gets placed into a "Relocated Items" folder on the Desktop. That folder,
which is actually an alias to /Users/Shared, contains a folder tree with:
Security/usr/X11R6. Naively, after seeing this, I elected to move the
entire folder to the Trash.
That led me into a cycle of trying to figure out how to then delete
that folder tree from the Trash, as I would get various OS errors in the
course of doing so.
That led me to some Google searches, with incremental attempts at
solutions, but eventually landing on the following thread in the Apple
Community forums:
posted a possible solution using Recovery Mode, I filed an Issue on the
XQuartz github repo here:
XQuartz fully before the Catalina upgrade, but there is no uninstall
program provided by them. There is a series of CLI commands in a github
gist here:
which appears to work, but would likely be best used prior to the
Catalina upgrade, and then re-install XQuartz after the upgrade is complete.
The solution to the problem posted by 'faikbey' in the Apple forum
appears to work in the original scenario, albeit, as I noted in my reply in
that thread, I needed to first mount the user volume in Recovery Mode using
Disk Utility, before I could proceed with the additional steps of deleting
the files from the Trash, then rebooting into normal mode.
If anyone else has experienced this and knows of an alternative/better
Otherwise, let's see what the XQuartz folks might come up with on this,
as this was not an issue with prior macOS upgrades.
