My belief is that if you
- build a single-architecture R from the sources
- use that to test your packages
it should work. If that is not an option, you can try
R CMD INSTALL --no-multiarch
with the CRAN build of R (and if that works try
R CMD check --install-args=--no-multiarch
).
(As someone who has never had a PPC Mac this is extrapolation from
what I do when I want to build/test one of i386/x86_64, possibly with
R --arch=x86_64.)

Should have made it clear that I want to compile
packages (which include C/C++) for testing before
putting on CRAN, and I don't have an intel
machine available.
FAQ 5.3 seems to suggest I use XCode >=2.4.0 (I have 3.0 installed).
FAQ 5.4 doesn't apply because it needs an intel computer.
sorry for not being clear first time

Hi
I have a little powerPC G4 powerbook, running macosx10.5.8.
I don't think XCode 3.2.1 will work for me.
What are my options?
thanks in advance
Robin
