This should not be required. What does .Platform say?

I couldn't let it be:

str(.Platform)
List of 6
$ OS.type   : chr "unix"
$ file.sep  : chr "/"
$ dynlib.ext: chr ".so"
$ GUI       : chr "AQUA"
$ endian    : chr "big"
$ pkgType   : chr "source"

Thanks, that is the bit which is incorrect. I now see the problem and have fixed it.


R.version.string
[1] "R version 2.1.0, 2005-04-18"

(After removing R.app and R.framework, re-installing from R-2.1.0.dmg,
logging out and in -- the last step helped.)

As this is "CRAN Mac OS X build" this seems to be in conflict with
documentation of 'options' "pkgType".

PS.

download.packages("AMORE", type="source", destdir="/tmp")

works in MacOS X (or this one I have here) with any 'type'.

Good!

cheers, jari oksanen
