But those paths should not be used unconditionally (as you have). They
are not right for most x86_64 Linux, Solaris, ... and they might not
even be right on Mac OS X (depending on the X installation).
And PKG_CPPFLAGS was correct: that means flags for cpp, the C
pre-processor, not for C++ (which is macro PKG_CXXFLAGS). See 'Writing
R Extensions'.

Works for me after additionally setting PKG_CPPFLAGS to point to the headers in
Makevars
PKG_LIBS=-L/usr/X11/lib -lX11
PKG_CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/X11/include

I submitted a package to CRAN:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/vimcom/index.html
It builds on Linux without warnings, but there is the following error
on Mac OS X:
ld: library not found for -lX11
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [vimcom.so] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'vimcom'
The complete log is here:

I know that I have to edit the src/Makevars file, but I don't know
what I should put there and I don't have access to any machine running
Mac OS X to make tests. Any help will be appreciated.
I've found this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5841008/problem-in-linking-x11-in-mac-os-x
So, it seems that a Makevars file with the following content would
solve the problem:
PKG_LIBS=-L/usr/X11/lib -lX11
I would be grateful if someone could try to build the package with the
above change in the src/Makevars since, as I have said, I can't make
tests.
I added PKG_CFLAGS because the code is in C.
I'm grateful to Jochen Laubrock for finding the solution and for
Federico Calboli for doing additional tests. The updated code is
available at:
