Simon, 

I am not sure that this is a bug, it is a security "feature". 

There is a macOS Ventura setting in: 

  System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Files and Folders -> Installer -> Downloads Folder 
  
If that is not enabled, then installation from the Downloads folder will fail. That may be the issue that Max is experiencing. 

Regards, 

Marc Schwartz 

P.S. Re-sending this without the screen capture, as that made the e-mail too large for the list.

Apparently there is a bug in Ventura that prevents software installation from the Downloads folder. Once the installer package is moved someplace else - the home or Desktop - it works. So if you see "Installation failed", make sure you move the package (typically that would be the R-4.2.2-arm64.pkg file) out of the Downloads folder. (Thanks to Max for sending the installer log so we could trace the cause!).

Cheers,
Simon
