Ok, I will take this over to the R-SIG-Mac list and cc Herve who is the build manager of Bioconductor. I suspect that something is wrong with the Bioconductor builds.

Synopsis: Jason is running R-2.7.0 from CRAN on an Intel macbook running 10.5.3. He says he has Xcode 3.0 installed. He tries to install the binary version of aff from Bioconductor using the normal
 biocLite("affy")
However, even though the tarball downloads and gets installed, the package won't load. It complains that it needs the library /usr/ local/lib/libintl.3.dylib (and an otool -L really confirms this), but apparently this files does not exists. I am a bit surprised that the binary version links to something in /usr/local. I have this file on my PPC G4 running 10.5.3. As I see it, this should work out of the box with the system Jason is running. Does anyone have any good ideas? My hunch is that something might be up with the binary builds?


Yes, that sounds like a problem with the BioC builds (libintl.3.dylib is really strange - we use libintl.8.dylib as a part of optional Gtk on CRAN, but never libintl3.dylib..). I didn't test BioC builds ever since we stopped building it on CRAN, but I have heard complains about their binaries linking various stuff from /usr/local, so I'd suggest to file a bug report with them (BTW: Xcode should not be required from binary installs).

Cheers,
S


Vince Carey reports that a student of his had a similar problem.

You're not doing it right :-)


otool -L
/Users/sjorges2002/Library/R/2.7/library/affy/libs/i386/affy.so

Let's see what you get from that.
