R | Rcmdr ; Rattle on R3.1 and Mac OSX yosemite
Today I tried to install Rcmdr on my MBP( yosemite ) and found that it was the installation was not successful and kept throwing a lot of errors and also some of the dependancies packages were not getting installed. I also noticed that some of the dependancies are not available for R.3.1 and yosemite. After spending a lot of time googling and trial and error, now I got everything working Steps to do Since Rcmdr uses xWindows system, we need a OSX version of the same. So make sure you have installed the Quartz(X11) from this site - http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/ Install macports - https://www.macports.org/install.php Make sure you have already installed the Xcode. Since some of the dependancies binaries are not available for the current R version, we might have to compile them from source Download RGtk2 source and cairoDevice source from CRAN ( download the "packaged source") http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RGtk2/ http://cran.r-project.org/web/p
