When I tried to test my installation I received the following error.

    If correct, BRugs does not exist for R 2.15.1.

    Is there a means to get arrange this problem?

Please install BRugs from sources, a Mac binary is not available on CRAN.


If he is doing this with WINE doesn't he need a Windows version.

Of what?

In theory BRugs on Mac OS X could talk to OpenBUGS running the latter under WINE. Except on 32-bit Windows, BRugs works by running a helper executable that is linked to OpenBUGS. So that helper would need to be compiled under Windows and be run through WINE. Just installing BRugs from the sources on OS X would not achieve that: you would need to build BugsHelper under Windows (possibly via WINE) and alter the BRugs sources to run it via WINE.

As others have said on R-sig-mac, it would be almost certainly be simpler to modify your task to run using JAGS via rjags, and most likely simpler to run BRugs under R for Windows using a Windows emulator (WINE might suffice).

The following code is an example from R Help bugs:

schools.sim <- bugs(data, inits,
+     parameters, model.file, n.chains=3,
+     n.iter=1000,
+     n.thin=10,n.burnin=10,bin=1,
+     DIC=FALSE,debug=TRUE,
+     useWINE = TRUE,
+     program = "OpenBUGS",
+     bugs.directory="c:/ProgramFiles/OpenBUGS/")

Is there a missing space in that path?
