R patched version for Mac
Simon, I seem to recall someone already poked you on this matter, but I can't find a record of it, so maybe not... The symptoms are pretty clear, the log indicates a successful recent build, but apparently the packages have not been built since Oct 27, so R-3.3-branch-mavericks.pkg contains the version from the and is actually older than the current release. (I checked the contents with pkgutils, and it is not just a labeling issue; the Payload files are time-stamped Oct 27 05:15) -pd

What makes you think there is a patched version on CRAN? Did you follow the link on https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/ to http://r.research.att.com/mavericks/R-3.3-branch/R-3.3-branch-mavericks.pkg? That is Simon Urbanek's site, so you need to ask him. but the version that gets delivered is actually the October Release Candidate version,
(R version 3.3.2 RC (2016-10-26 r71594). It has been doing this since 3.3.2 has been released. Is there a real patched version somewhere? David Watson NASA - MSFC Mail Code ES62 Phone 256-544-1300 FAX 256-544-2964 david.w.watson at nasa.gov<mailto:david.w.watson at nasa.gov>
