R-helpers:

I just updated from R 7.0 to R 7.2.2 today.  I am using MAC OS X  
version 10.5.4 on a Macbook to run R.

----------------------------

The first part of the procedure seemed to work, then came page after  
page of error messages.  Can someone tell me what is going on here and  
how I can fix the problem?  I found a similar report on R-help that  
was never resolved and also involved a MAC 
(http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e4/help/08/06/15556.html 
).  Could this be a MAC issue?

Thanks very much for your time.
