Dear Simon
For some reason I cannto install R-2.7.2 on my Mac (Mac OS 10.3.9) and
unfortunately we don't support 10.3 (Panther) anymore. It is way too
old (almost 5 years now) and with the introduction of Intel Macs the
newer systems diverged too much such that it is not possible to use
the same code on new systems and Panther. Therefore you'll have to
upgrade at least to 10.4 to use R binaries (it's faster so if you have
a G4 it's a good idea to do so).
Alternatively you can compile R yourself (which is what Stephen is
reporting about here), but R starting with 2.7 Aqua/Quartz is no
longer supported on 10.3 even in the sources, so you can only use the
X11 interface. Also you'll need to compile packages from sources (use
type='source' in install.packages).
Finally, the last R binary supporting OS X 10.3 was R-2.2.1 which is
still available from CRAN. It is very old, so it will lack many new
features and bugfixes.
I cannot find
installations for R-2.7.1 either.
See the "old" directory on the CRAN page.
Cheers,
Simon
The explanations do not help me. I need the programme for the

at Uni Zürich.
Hope you can help me!
Thanks a lot and best wishes
