Hi, I'm trying to install an R package from the source. I get the following errors. >> R CMD INSTALL /Users/jcarew/Desktop/sspline_0.1-2.tar.gz * Installing *source* package 'sspline' ... ** libs ** arch - i386 /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/SHLIB: line 1: make: command not found chmod: ... ERROR: compilation failed for package 'sspline' Presumably, this means that I do not have make on my system. Does anyone know where I can obtain it? I'm running 0SX 10.4.8 on an intel core 2 duo processor with R 2.4.0.

You need Apple's Xcode tools - they are located on the installation DVD. If you are using R from CRAN, make sure you have installed the full version of R and not the mini version. (You may want to install full version of R 2.4.1 after you installed Xcode ...). Cheers, Simon
