Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Yosemite and R
Dear all, Brian Ripley has brought it my attention that R 3.1.2, due to be released soon, *does* check that X11 is present and prints an informative error message if it isn't. That's a substantial improvement. Thanks, John On Tue, 28 Oct 2014 09:43:53 -0400 John Fox j...@mcmaster.ca wrote: Dear Rich, I've made a similar suggestions before, I believe. It would even help to have tcltk fail less cryptically if X-Windows is unavailable under Mac OS X, suggesting that XQuartz be installed and pointing to the XQuartz website. And it shouldn't be hard to check capabilities()[X11] when tcltk loads. The large majority of Rcmdr problems about which people write me concern this one issue. There are clear, detailed installation instructions on the Rcmdr website but no way for me to insure that people are aware of them. I spent some time trying to find a way to report the absence of X-Windows at Rcmdr start-up, but the dependency on tcltk causes the Rcmdr to fail to load before an informative message can be printed -- a chicken-and-egg problem. Maybe there's a way to do this that I didn't discover. The essential problem here is that naive users don't have an obvious way of avoiding the problem. They install the software and expect it to work. There are similar issues with the system path under Yosemite and with app nap. This leads to repetitious emails to package maintainers and to repetitive questions on the various help lists, etc. That said, I think that there is a good solution for teachers of courses, workshops, etc.: Create -- or point to existing -- clear installation instructions that include installing XQuartz under OS X. The less tractable problem is individual users downloading and installing R from CRAN. Best, John On Tue, 28 Oct 2014 00:03:52 -0400 Richard M.

Re: [R-SIG-Mac] Yosemite and R
There has been quite a bit of wild speculation in this thread, but the only issue I was able to reproduce is the R.app crash on the first startup which seems to happen only if you don't have any preferences stored. Re-starting R.app seems to work since the preferences are created during the first startup so subsequent starts don't crash.
