Dear R team, I've recently come across a strange bug which seems undocumented and contradicts the INSTALL instructions from the sources of R-GUI.
Running El Capitan, I usually install all my distributions using Homebrew and keep everything up-to-date (except for the OS which is not Sierra yet). The current R.app 1.6.8 fails to run on El Capitan, with a warning "You're running 10.11.6. This app requires 10.12". My first thought was a Homebrew mix-up in the binary distribution, but the Github issue pointed to somthing else (see: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-science/issues/5411#issuecomment-293030482). The binary they build is using -target R -configuration Release The install instructions from Mac-GUI-1.68.tar.gz seem to be out of date as they still detail SnowLeopard64 build which seem not included anymore. Is there any reason why a normal build of R.app would not run on OSX versions other than Sierra ? All the best, Thomas [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
