https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450479 --- Comment #5 from Thomas Friedrichsmeier --- Update: The current build now starts again, with both R 4.0.2 and R 4.1.2(*), but my testing is limited to Mojave. Since issues related to codesigning / gatekeeper vary a lot between MacOS versions, testing would be much appreciated. (*) Actually, on R 4.1.2 on-screen plots will not work, however, this time the problem is a simple version mismatch and ought to be fixed with tomorrows build. (For signed binaries, I need to rely on the automated daily builds, which puts an obvious limit on how fast I can fix even simple problems...) Link to today's semi-functional DMG: https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/MacOS/job/RKWard_Nightly_macos/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/rkward-master-993-macos-64-clang.dmg Link to latest build at all times: https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/MacOS/job/RKWard_Nightly_macos/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450479 --- Comment #4 from Thomas Friedrichsmeier --- Meanwhile I managed to get our MacOS builds back online, but I now believe the problem is not actually related to the version of R, but to changes in the codesigning. If you have a few minutes to spare, could you download and test this new build: https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/MacOS/job/RKWard_Nightly_macos/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/rkward-master-992-macos-64-clang.dmg ? It will _not_ fix the problem, but it should give some additional info on the cause of the problem. Could you copy and post that? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Thank you for your comments on this Thomas, I'll try in the afternoon with the older version of R and will be back. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450479 --- Comment #2 from Thomas Friedrichsmeier --- Ok, I did some testing. I can replicate the problem with R 4.1. Problem is that one of the linked libraries tries to use a path from R 4.0 (which is what the RKWard binary was compiled against). Installing R 4.0, instead of 4.1, allows RKWard to start. I am aware this is not exactly a fix, and worse, it seems RKWard will not start when both R 4.0 and R 4.1 are installed in parallel, either. A solution to this should be as "easy" as building a new version compiled against R 4.1. Unfortunately, our build process on Mac is currently broken due to an unrelated issue ( https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-windows/2022-February/011609.html ), so this may take a while. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450479 Thomas Friedrichsmeier changed: What|Removed |Added CC||thomas.friedrichsmeier@kdem ||ail.net --- Comment #1 from Thomas Friedrichsmeier --- For the sake of narrowing down the issue, could you try installing R 4.0.1, and try with that? If installing in parallel to R 4.1.2, start RKWard from the command line as: /Applications/KDE/rkward.app/Contents/MacOS/rkward --r-executable=/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.0/Resources/bin/R (Please take the paths involved with a grain of salt, I don't have easy access to a mac). Also, please try running as: /Applications/KDE/rkward.app/Contents/MacOS/rkward --debug-level 5 then locate the debug files inside $TMPDIR (one for the frontend, one for the backend), and attach them, here.
