Vincent,
I'm sorry but somehow I have no idea what you're talking about. Your
package "actuar" (in the most recent version 0.9-7 on CRAN) passes
"make check" with R 2.7.0 and it is available in binary form from
CRAN as well, see:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/actuar/index.html

My package checked and buit fine under 2.6.2 on Leopard 10.5.2.
Under 2.7.0, 2.7.0 patched (2008-05-29) and R-devel (2008-05-30) it
always fails at the "checking whether package 'actuar' can be
installed" step. The 00install.log tells me that R tried to call
gcc-4.2, which I don't have. It is my understanding from reading
the documentation that this version of gcc is not mandatory. I have
XCode v. 3.0 installed.
The compiler used in the released versions is gcc (which is by
default gcc-4.0 even if you installed gcc-4.2). You can map gcc to
gcc-4.2 if you desire so, but that is a non-standard setup.
I started again from scratch (deleting everything in Library/
Frameworks/R.framework and reinstalling 2.7.0) and indeed, everything
is fine. It appears I had the troublesome Resources/etc/x86_64/
Makeconf file in my installation. How it got there I have no idea.
Perhaps a momentary lapse of reason in the installation process at
some point.
Furthermore, I noticed that, for 2.7.0, the /Library/Frameworks/
R.framework/Resources/etc/*/Makeconf files refer to gcc for i386
and ppc, and to gcc-4.2 on x86_64. For 2.7.0 patched and R-devel,
the Makeconf files refer to gcc-4.2 on all architectures.
Not in the official binaries that I am releasing:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/etc/ppc/Makeconf:
CC = gcc -arch ppc -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -
mmacosx-version-min=10.4 -std=gnu99
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/etc/i386/Makeconf:
CC = gcc -arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -
mmacosx-version-min=10.4 -std=gnu99
However, as I originally stated, all Makeconf files in R-2.7-branch-
leopard-universal.tar.gz and R-devel-leopard-universal.tar.gz on
R.research.att.com refer to gcc-4.2. But then these are not official
releases, I guess.
I can't see what I did wrong, but then I'm certainly not the first
one to compile a package from source since the release of 2.7.0.
Any help would be appreciated.
You'll have to tell us exactly which R build are you using. CRAN
binaries are clearly not configured the way you are describing, so
you must be using some custom or experimental build in which case
you're on you own ...
Nonetheless, even in the case of using gcc-4.2 your package
installs, so I have no idea what you are concerned about.
Again, this was most likely caused by a partially oozed system. Sorry
for the inconvenience and thank you again for your help and great work.
Best,
Vincent
Cheers,
Simon
