Please use R-sig-mac for Mac OS X questions, as the posting guide asks.

But there is a binary of Gtk2 on r.research.att.com that matches the binary RGtk2 package on CRAN, and that worked for me earlier today. Mixing fink (or darwinports) with the binary R distribution is warned against in the R Mac OS X documentation.

I'm having trouble to install RGtk2 (from source) on Mac OS 10.4.11 (R 2.9.0). The GTK libraries (2.12.11) were installed into /sw/lib via fink. Even if I set the GTK_LIBS to that path, the installation program doesn't seem to find it (see below). libglade is there too but not found.

If I install the package from binaries, it fails on load.

Would anybody know how to make it work?

Thanks a lot,

Hana
