I just upgraded my macbook to maverick and i'm running into an old problem.
When I do:

png(tempfile(), type="cairo")

or

svg(tempfile())

or even:

library(Cairo)

R exists with a warning that X11 is required. I also tried:

options(bitmapType = 'cairo')
png(tempfile())

but same result. If I recall correctly this was not the case in OSX 10.8.

It was. You need to re-install XQuartz after an update. See the R-admin manual.


Is there any way to use png() or svg() on Mavericks without installing
xquartz?

png() yes: use the quartz-based device.
