David, that is typically a sign of damaged fonts in your system. Open the Font Book (in Applications), select User and see if there are any broken fonts and remove them. You can also select fonts and run File -> Validate Font. Either way, you can compare your font configuration on both

Stavros, as the error says, the proxy needs a valid ssl library. Apple has removed OpenSSL from Catalina and from the SDK already in Mojave. The most simple solution is to disable the QAP/WebSocket proxy with configure.args="—without-proxy" if you don’t need it (or any other SSL

Yes, this is a known problem on Catalina. It goes away if you use the touchpad to pan or if you start typing. It's unclear at this point what is causing it. Catalina generally exhibits few rendering issues (missing background for some elements etc.). Those are under investigation. Cheers,

I don't think that is feasible (assuming you mean macOS 11 arm64 system running in a VM). Note that M1 is not just the CPU, there is much tighter integration of all the components so you'd have to emulate a lot more than that and also all the Apple security components etc. in order to be able

You seem to have entirely non-standard setup that you're on your own and I assume you're not using CRAN R since you involve homebrew (which explains the chaos) so presumably you re-compiled R yourself and all packages, but I'd like to point out that if all you are after is OpenMP support then

You may want to ask the ggplot help - since you provided zero details we can't tell (you didn't even say what kind of output you're looking at). I have no idea if that is related (since you didn't provide any code), but one common mistake is to use lwd=0 which leads to undefined behavior
