Adrian,
Thanks! Unfortunately, this is a hiccup with the download portion of the R
Developer binaries [1] from the {recipes} system on CRAN [2]. It looks like the
system might have been in mid-update or we overloaded it with download
requests. Ewk! I’ll try to see if we can meter the requests with a .1 second
delay or so.
If you re-run in a few moments the installation command:
macrtools::macos_rtools_install()
Only the development binaries from the {recipes} system will be installed.
(Xcode CLI and gfortran will be skipped as they are now both installed and
configured.) These binaries are mainly if you want to compiled R from source.
Best,
JJB

Just went through the commands, on a new MacBook Pro with M2 Max, MacOS Ventura
13.2.1
I already had Xcode CLI installed, and the gfortran installation went well
until it stopped at the icu binary:

All,
Hope all is well.
About a month or so back, we revisited the **unofficial** macOS R compilation
toolchain setup wizard with a focus on making it more maintainable without an
Apple developer subscription. The result is the new {macrtools} R package. You
can learn more about it here:
GitHub:
https://github.com/coatless-mac/macrtools<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/coatless-mac/macrtools__;!!DZ3fjg!9LMgelsxLau-BxmqYfTzEgA5QxjuoqHFp02eITeYGSW7nC7z5UaC3sVUyHrNEViohimWHrssIYGDOTdLx7mgIYJRnkw$>
Documentation:
https://mac.thecoatlessprofessor.com/macrtools/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/mac.thecoatlessprofessor.com/macrtools/__;!!DZ3fjg!9LMgelsxLau-BxmqYfTzEgA5QxjuoqHFp02eITeYGSW7nC7z5UaC3sVUyHrNEViohimWHrssIYGDOTdLx7mgEHZj8Q8$>
Video walkthrough:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fckF0fefXQ<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fckF0fefXQ__;!!DZ3fjg!9LMgelsxLau-BxmqYfTzEgA5QxjuoqHFp02eITeYGSW7nC7z5UaC3sVUyHrNEViohimWHrssIYGDOTdLx7mgluEy5Rk$>
The package setups the required components for the macOS R compilation
toolchain on both Intel-based and Arm-based macs with just the issuance in R of:
macrtools::macos_rtools_install()
This will attempt to install:
* Xcode CLI
* gfortran
* R Development binaries
We’re grateful for the early testing feedback from both Bob Rudis and Adam H
Sparks related to ARM-based macs and Simon Urbanek’s help with unpacking
binaries as well as the install user prompt best practices note. (Note: This is
not an endorsement from Simon or CRAN. This is an **unofficial** project to
support macOS users who are not familiar with command-line tools.)
We hope this improves the experience in setting up the compilation toolchain
and lowers the barrier of entry for using packages like RStan and RcppArmadillo.
Best,
JJB
