I can get it to build and install quite easily, I have not tested it in any way. In fact R CMD CHECK fails in running all examples. Output files included below.
1. I use libxml from fink (1.8.17-3 )
2. When linking XML.so I manually add the flag "-Xlinker -m" because
ld: warning multiple definitions of symbol _xmlParserError Utils.o definition of _xmlParserError in section (__TEXT,__text) /sw/lib/libxml.dylib(error.lo) definition of _xmlParserError
My understanding is that xmlParserError from Utils.c is supposed to overwrite the one from libxml, but simple overriding is not possible in OS X flat namespaces. The linker flag forces the right definition.
Here is some configure output
checking libxml/parser.h usability... yes
checking libxml/parser.h presence... yes
checking for libxml/parser.h... yes
Found the libxml parser.h in /sw/include/gnome-xml/libxml/
Located parser file /sw/include/gnome-xml/parser.h
-D__DEBUGGING__ -I/sw/include/gnome-xml -I/sw/include/gnome-xml/libxml -I/sw/include/gnome-xml
Using libxml 1.8.*!
checking for gzopen in -lz... yes
checking for xmlParseFile in -lxml... yes
New style libxml!

Has anyone successfully built the XML package for Darwin R 1.8.0 alpha?===
If so, in what configurations?
