Dear R Windows developers, there is now a new toolchain for R for Windows, Rtools43. It is now used by R-devel and is intended, following likely at least one minor update, for R 4.3.0. Compared to Rtools42, it uses GCC 12 and updates other core components. See https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/rtools43/news.html for a detailed list of changes. All users of R-devel who need to compile R packages with source code in C, C++ or Fortran should install Rtools43. From the user perspective, Rtools43 works the same way as Rtools42. See https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/howto-R-devel.html for instructions on how to build R-devel and packages for this version of R. It is recommended to re-install packages that need compilation to avoid potential incompatibilities with code built using Rtools42. Best Tomas
Rtools43
