I got this error message working under R version 3.3.0  trying to use the Mac 
[R.app GUI 1.68 (7238) x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0]  Packages & Data/ Package 
Installer

R error message:
Warning: unable to access index for repository 
http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3:  cannot open URL 
'http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3/PACKAGES'

I checked for upgrades and installed R version 3.3.1

I got the same error message once again.

Luckily I remembered that I could install libraries from within R and thus used:

> install.packages('RCurl', dependencies=TRUE, repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')

But I am wondering if the malfunction of the GUI approach is something I can 
fix or is temporary?

Joe
