I haven't followed this entire thread, but I'm running macOS
10.15.2 Catalina on a 2014 MacBookPro, and I haven't had problems
downloading the latest version of R. Roughly a month ago, I clicked
"R-3.6.2.pkg" on "https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/macosx/". It
downloaded to my "Downloads"
Why not use the official installer and adjust the installation path?
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/
Also allows multiple versions being installed, all from the CLI (but I
guess guess it's a normal desktop machine and you can just use the gui
installer).
256GB is a normal size for a disk,
If you say Debian, Fink is more appropriate. Fink uses apt-get and .deb
format. One good thing is Fink allows you to install multiple versions of R.

First of all 256 Gig is huge, as far as Homebrew is concerned. I have had
homebrew installed
even on very old systems with no more than that.
Secondly, drag the sucker over to the iStore or Gravis and have them bang a
proper SSD in. Been there, done that.
Or, thirdly, install minimal Homebrew a
Thank you so much for you assistance.
My problem is not solved, because I must install R, etc. on a different Volume
like SYS-Volume & I can´t find this option under "homebrew".

For me it usually had to resort to the latter when there were
connectivity issues (more common in Namibia than in Potsdam :-)-O).
And maybe once or twice when I wanted to try something special.
It also has a 'cask' option with which it installs apps so I do
brew install r
brew cask install rstud
Matthias,
this is exactly why you should use Homebrew.
Tante Gugel is your friend :-)-O

Homebrew is Linux-style packaging for OS X. Think of it as an equivalent to
apt-get—either it will retrieve a binary or it will attempt to build one.

Eberhard,
thank you so much for your quick response.
Yes, my MacBook has only 256 GB HDD (Standard) ☹
Oh, well, I know & I don´t use X-Code as well. I take the small version of
that: xcode-select --install
(It installed only the command-line tools, header, etc. for using their own
c-compiler)
Matthias,
A Mac with Catalina and a small hard disk?
I use the Homebrew package manager and while there is a short delay
between R and Homebrew this works out very well. It has two options,
one with out the app, which is what I use because I for GUI I use
RStudio exclusively.
There is really no
Hello everybody,
I am new at this Mailinglist and I have a question about R on MacOS Catalina.
On your Website I had found a package for R. If I want to install it on my
MacBook – the program told me, that I can´t install the software
on an other volume like “system”….. That is bad, because
