Probably quite a bit slow:
2009-06-26 13:29 R-2.9.1.dmg
so the Mac binary was actually out very early this time ... you could
install it while having your afternoon tea on the R release date :).
In the bottomless pit of my stupidity I always wanted to ask the
following, but I've always been too ashamed (or lazy) to ask. I
always download the full dmg, but I never install any of the
supplementary packages. Should I? only in case of a fresh
installation (I'm upgrading now)? I have Xcode and X11 installed
already anyway.
This has nothing to do with Xcode or X11. The full packages contains
Tcl/Tk and GNU Fortran. You'll need Tcl/Tk is you want to use tcltk
(the one that OS X ships with doesn't work) and you'll need GNU
Fortran if you want to compile packages from sources that contain
Fortran code. So if you a) don't use tcltk and b) don' t compile
packages from sources you're fine wit the mini version.
Cheers,
Simon
