Seeking a volunteer who uses HomeBrew package manager.

Currently data.table installation wiki (https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/wiki/Installation) describes a complicated method using Makevars file.

With MacPorts (which I use), data.table install with OpenMP enabled is quite simple:

Install OpenMP from https://mac.r-project.org/openmp/

Install data.table: sudo port install r-data.table +openmp

There was no need to use Makevars file.

Can someone using HomeBrew try installing data.table in a similar way without using Makevars?  If data.table install (with OpenMP support) is successful, then we can update wiki to include this simpler method.

My R installation was done using MacPorts.  I am assuming that HomeBrew user has installed R using HomeBrew.

Finally, does above method miss out on any features that are included when data.table is installed with Makevars file?

Thanks,

Naresh
