Package: XML Version: 3.9-4 ReleaseDate: 2012/01/30 ... Repository: CRAN Date/Publication: 2012-01-31 07:37:18 Built: R 2.15.0; universal-apple-darwin9.8.0; 2012-03-31 00:12:17 UTC; unix Archs: i386, ppc, x86_64 So, it seems that i386 and x86_64 are available by installing that binary. Please, what am I misunderstanding here? Thanks for your help!
