Yes and no... I think if you have to bundle gfortran.so and gcc_s.so, you should put them in /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/lib ? Why is /usr/local/* touched at all? I am actually at this moment sitting in front of a mac (on a public university shared computer room) which has gfortran 4.2.0 20070525 (prerelease) in /usr/local/bin and gcc_s.* and libgfortran* in /usr/local/lib and /Library/.../R.../lib are different. (which IMHO is the right way to do it). HTL ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
