similar) graphical resources have to be installed for 3D plotting. I tried with
no luck, to screen the source code of ~15 other packages importing rgl to get
some inspiration. Most packages did not run any rgl examples or tests.

| Questions:
| 1. I there a fix for "r-release-osx-x86_64-mavericks" machine? Could I e.g.
specify Xquartz to be installed?
| 2. Should I in general just assume no OSX user has installed Xquartz and link
to a OSX install-guide from source in description file?
| 3. Can I in general test builds on "r-release-osx-x86_64-mavericks" machine
somehow without spamming CRAN with submissions?
I don't know about 1) to 3) but may I plead with you to not run rgl code
during R CMD check?
I frequently tests against all reverse dependencies against some of my
packages, ie Rcpp, RcppArmadillo, ... and packages using rgl generally fail
during these tests.
A simple wrapper like
if (interactive()) {
# do something
}
can help in demos or examples.

Yes, I see lots of that on Linux too as the tests run 'headless' without a
controlling terminal.
