I have no special knowledge, but a few questions to try to narrow things down:
- Is there anything unusual in your .Rprofile? - Did you try installing ggplot using the "Package Installer" menu item in the GUI? - Is it ggplot, or actually the load of 'proto' that's failing? (Can you "library(proto)" OK?) - Try creating a new user on your Mac, logging in, installing R and then ggplot2. Re permissions, seems unlikely, but running the voodoo "Repair Permissions" in Disk Utility won't hurt...
