You probably have a malconfigured homebrew installation of R. On MacOS
it is recommended to use the CRAN version of R
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/. The homebrew version depends
on gcc compilers and does not support cran binary packages.
If you really want to use the homebrew R try ruling
Is there a reason that you can't use the binary provided by CRAN?
That's the easiest way to get xml2.

i am trying to install xml2 from CRAN, and it is throwing an error
that it cannot find the libxml2 library configuration.
The thing is that pkg-config seems to be set up correctly:
$ echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
:/usr/local/opt/libxml2/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/opt/libxml2/lib/pkgconfig
$ pkg-config --c
