I have been using R for a couple of years now, but recently updated to the newest version (3.0.2).
When I tried to install the Rcmdr package (and dependencies), all went well until the end, when I got a series of errors (will paste below).
I am running on a mac mini2.6 i7, 16GB RAM, and a Fusion drive, with OS X 10.9.1.
Any help would be appreciated!

Could have been corrupted during download. You might think about first installing 'rgl' 'rms' and 'Hmisc' on your own, then maybe the script will just skip over those steps.

I get the same errors when trying them individually. Any guesses if this is at my end or elsewhere?

Not really. You have not provided the code you used to do the install, nor the name of the repository, not the versions for any of the packages except rgl). There was a thread on this forum earlier this month with John Fox as the original poster, and I got the idea that he figured out how to get Rcmdr to install on Mavericks. At this point I'm not using Mavericks or Rcmdr, so I'm going to bow out from the conversation. (I can say that you really _ought_ to provide more specifics if you want help.)

Dear David and Drew, As far as I can tell from his postings, Drew's problem isn't specific to the Rcmdr, and is different from problems with Mac OS X 10.9 that were previously reported. There are installation notes for the Rcmdr package at <http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Misc/Rcmdr/installation-notes.html>, including information specific to Mac OS X 10.9, but, to reiterate, these have nothing to do with Drew's more general package-installation problem. If Drew hasn't already done so, if I were he, I would uninstall R and then reinstall it and desired packages from a different mirror, in case a corrupted installation is the source of the problem. If the problem persists, then it may have an origin on Drew's system outside of R, but I'm insufficiently knowledgeable about Mac OS X to suggest a solution, which is why I didn't respond to the original posting. I hope that this helps, John ------------------------------------------------------- John Fox, Professor Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

Thanks John - uninstalling and reinstalling (using a different mirror) fixed the problem! I appreciate your help, Drew
