 updates of installation bear with macOS (Mojave) [🇷 for BE/BA]

Dear all,

This is to renew my previous post about installation of bear (or my other R packages using RGtk2 package. For Windows OS or Linux users, the previous posts still hold true. Now, the problem occurs with macOS (Mojave). If you upgrade R to current version (v3.6.1), you may need to read this carefully. The key point is the issue of RGtk2 package installation. As default from preinst.r, RGtk2 is installed as type="binary" which is default for install.packages() function. For most of R packages, this should be no problem at all with macOS. Unfortunately, RGtk2 is an exception. So we need to install RGtk2 correctly; otherwise you will get error messages something like   
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
  unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/RGtk2/libs/RGtk2.so':
  dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/RGtk2/libs/RGtk2.so, 6): Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/GTK+.framework/Versions/2.24.X11/Resources/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.6/Resources/library/RGtk2/libs/RGtk2.so
  Reason: image not found

And there will be a popup window to ask if ‘Need GTK+?’ which was a broken link and was unable to install GTK+ (driver). I have tried thousand times and failed to connect. However, if you can get it from it, do not use it. If you try to install RGtk2 from its source with install.packages("RGtk2",type="source"), you will get another error messages "... gtk is not found. gtk 2.8.0 or above is required.' That implies gtk+ installation previously using Homebrew is not recognized by R any more. So the following steps can resolve this problem (tested with bear v2.8.4/R v3.6.1 with macOS (Mojave)).
  • go and browse this website and try to install RGtk2 package from its source. In summary, you will need Xcode and Xcode command line tool and MacPorts. Download and install. Go to CRAN mirror to download RGtk2 and cairoDevice source tarballs (*.tar.gz). Put these two tar ball files under your working directory. And open a terminal type    

    $ export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
    $ sudo port selfupdate
    $ sudo port install pkgconfig
    $ sudo port install gtk2 +x11  ### <- this is extremely important.
    $ R CMD INSTALL RGtk2_x.xx.xx.tar.gz
    $ R CMD INSTALL cairoDevice_x.xx.tar.gz

Please note that x.xx.xx is the version # of the package. Make sure they are correct. Then RGtk2 should be able to be installed successfully. If it is your first time to install bear, please run source("preinst.r") under R console. Then download bear (source or binary) from Sourceforge and install it with a terminal and type R CMD INSTALL bear_x.xx.xx.tar.gz or R CMD INSTALL bear_x.xx.xx.tgz where x.xx.xx is the version # again. Interesting to find out that with macOS, these two commands R CMD INSTALL bear_x.xx.xx.tar.gz and sudo R CMD INSTALL bear_x.xx.xx.tar.gz do the same things. They all install the package to the same directory. That is very different from Windows OS and Linux. If we type .libPaths() under R console, there is only one library path. Let me know if I was wrong about this. I will update preinst.r later and make it to install/build RGtk2 package from source only for macOS. I feel that gtk2 installed from Macports is much more stable than the previous one (gtk+) from Homebrew.

All the best,

 upgrade R with macOS (Mojave)

Dear all,

It should be very easy to upgrade R with macOS (Mojave). Since I am not familiar with macOS and I do not have an iMac (just running macOS under VirtualBox), I used to be afraid to do this. So I stayed with R v3.5.1 for a while. But recently, I feel much comfortable now. Here is steps:
  1. Delete the previous R with two commands under a terminal:
    $ rm -rf /Applications/R.app
    $ sudo rm -rf /Library/Frameworks/R.framework
  2. Install new R (R-x.x.x.pkg) and re-install gfortan_6.1.pkg (it is required; obtained it from CRAN mirror): Remember to install R first followed by gfortran_6.1.pkg. This is because gfortran will install some fortran/C/C++ header files into /R.framework; so we have to do it again;
  3. Re-install RGtk2 and cairoDevice package as previous post;
  4. Re-run source(“preinst.r”) under R console;
  5. Re-install bear package.
That's it.

All the best,

 an old itch when running RGtk2 (GUI) with macOS

Dear all,

This has been an old problem and I used to leave it as it was. The problem is when we try to retrieve a input data file with gfile() function from RGtk2, I usually get the error message as follows:(R:351): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:28:58.039: Attempting to read the recently used resources file at `/Users/username/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but the parser failed: Failed to open file “/Users/username/.local/share/recently-used.xbel”: Permission denied. where username is your login name, of course. It does not matter at all because the package still can read the input file correctly. However, it just make me itch for a long time. Recently, I solve the puzzle.

It can be easily fixed with a terminal and type
   mkdir /Users/username/.local /Users/username/.local/share.

Please do not use
   sudo mkdir /Users/username/.local /Users/username/.local/share

unless you run R with sudo R every time; otherwise you still get "... Permission denied". When I asked Google master several years ago, some nice people always suggested that we should use sudo mkdir /Users/username/.local /Users/username/.local/share to fix this problem. However, I still got ".... Permissions denied." That's because I did not use sudo R, instead of just R to run R. If you get this error messages, just fix it and do not let itch keeps bothering you. And this only occurs with macOS.

 upgrade/re-install cairoDevice package from source (macOS)

Dear all,

I found the package cairoDevice was upgraded again. As default, it is installed using the binary (*.tgz) from CRAN. Then it will incur errors when using together with RGtk2 for macOS users. So please install or upgrade the package cairoDeivce from source, if running bear. Type install.packages("cairoDevice",type="source") in the terminal. It will fix the errors. Do the same thing for the package RGtk2 (install.packages("RGtk2",type="source")) upgrade later.

 bear with Catalina OS

Dear mahmound-teaima,

If you upgraded macOS from Mojave to Catalina, you did not need to re-install everything. You only need to upgrade R and re-install bear (please see my previous post about how to upgrade R and bear). I have not tested the whole installation processes with a brand new Catalina macOS yet. Hope this can help.

 Installing R v4.0.0 & bear on Catalina (macOS 10.15.3)

Dear Mahmound,

I just installed R v4.0.0 and bear on Catalina under virtualbox (VM). It is the same as previous steps on Mojave (see the attached picture). That is to install Xcode, Xcode commander line (both can be downloaded from Apple Development Center; login req.), MacPorts and XQuartz. Then install R v4.0.0 and GNU Fortran as described in CRAN website. No need to install RGtk2 & cairoDevice packages separately. I have already included these steps into 'preinst.r'.

$ export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install pkgconfig
$ sudo port install gtk2 +x11


The only warning I had during running bear was:
Unable to create basic Accelerated OpenGL renderer.
Unable to create basic Accelerated OpenGL renderer.
Core Image is now using the software OpenGL renderer. This will be slow.


This is a new warning message to me. However, it still runs well. I need to find out how to solve the issue (OpenGL renderer stuffs; it seems there is no way to fix it. It's Catalina. OpenGL has been deprecated by Apple. Please see this and this).

So I would like to suggest that you may consider to remove R first from your iMac and try the setup steps again. If it still doesn't work, the you may consider to re-set your iMac back to factory default first (remember to back up all your important data/files before that!). Sorry to keep you waiting.

 tricks of R v4.0.0

Dear Mahmound,

Right. R v4.0.0 requires all packages rebuild for it. The binary file (*.tgz) on SourceForge now was built under previous version (R v3.6.x). So you need to download the source tarball file (*.tar.gz) of bear from here and place it in your working folder (getwd() to know where it is). Then open an terminal, type R CMD INSTALL bear_2.8.7.tar.gz [Enter]. It should work. I have done with upgrade to R v4.0.0 on Windows and macOS (both Mojave & Catalina). Now is waiting for linux-ubuntu (from its software update).

Ps. (1) However packages binary built under R v4.0.0 can be installed for R v3.6.x without any compatibility issue. (2) R v4.0.0 seems running faster on Windows, but much slower on Catalina... just my gut feeling.

 tricks of R v4.0.0

Dear mahmoud,

Great. I believe that you use a real mac computer. So did you get the same warning messages as I did when running bear? just being curious... You can open that R app. GUI instead of using a terminal to run R. Then the warning messages appear right over there before running library(bear).

 tricks of R v4.0.0

Dear YJLee,
I ran an old project on bear2.7.8 running on R4.0.0 through RStudio 1.2.5042 on macOS Catalina 10.15.4, MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015). I have some comments on the output:
1. conc. time plots: only cartesian plot are there, no semilog plots; subject number is missing from title of plots; error bars are not clear in the mean conc. time plot on cartesian scale.
2. i got an error message in console as follows:
Hotelling T^2 with Chi-square Test 
-------------------------------------
Error in is.finite(x) : default method not implemented for type 'list'


Other output files are OK.

 errors of bear in R v4.0.0

Hi Mahmoud,

You're right. These errors appear in all platforms (Windows 10, macOS and Linux-Ubuntu).

❝ 1. conc. time plots: only cartesian plot are there, no semilog plots; subject number is missing from title of plots; error bars are not clear in the mean conc. time plot on cartesian scale.


The problem can be due to the package ggplot2. The function of labs(title=...,) in ggplot2 doesn't work properly. Plots are created by ggplot2 for this part. However, the plots of lambda_z selection are fine (with subject #). They are created with R built-in plot(). Should we wait for the update of ggplot2 or just switch back to R built-in plot()?

❝ 2. i got an error message in console as follows:

❝ Hotelling T^2 with Chi-square Test

❝ -------------------------------------

Error in is.finite(x) : default method not implemented for type 'list'"


The line stop at formatC(...). I still don't know how to fix it so far since I cannot find anything wrong. It is for outlier detection analysis (ODA). Turning it off can avoid the error.

Ps. or maybe going back to R v3.6.3 is a good idea.

Thanks for reporting the errors.

 errors of bear in R v4.0.0

Hi mahmoud,

❝ I ran an old project on bear2.7.8 running on R4.0.0 ..


OK, but why did you choose v2.7.8? Is there any particular reason for doing that?
Did you mean bear v2.8.7, not v2.7.8? If yes, sorry for my misunderstanding.

❝ 1. conc. time plots: only cartesian plot are there, no semilog plots; subject number is missing from title of plots; error bars are not clear in the mean conc. time plot on cartesian scale.


Yes, I have fixed all these plotting issues/errors. The next release should be fine. :-D

❝ 2. i got an error message in console as follows:

❝ Hotelling T^2 with Chi-square Test

❝ -------------------------------------

Error in is.finite(x) : default method not implemented for type '


I still work on this. I don't know how to fix it yet. The error did not exist at all when I run bear v2.8.7 on R v3.6.3. Therefore, I was wondering if I should take 'Hotelling T^2 with Chi-square Test' out off ODA temporarily for the next release. But other ODAs still work well. I will try more to see if I can fix it anyway. And finally I still stay with R v4.0.0. :-D

Hi Yung-jin,

❝ R v4.0.0 seems running faster on Windows …


Really? I removed 3.6.3 yesterday. If you still have it, can you do me a favor and perform a demanding check (sample size by 105 subject simulations for a partial replicate design with heterogenicity, the EMA’s approach of reference-scaling, assumed T/R-ratio 0.9, target power 0.8, five runs):

library(PowerTOST)
if (packageVersion("PowerTOST") < "1.4.8") {
  stop("Please install the latest version from CRAN.")
} else {
  CVp <- 0.4                                      # pooled CVw
  CV  <- signif(CVp2CV(CV = CVp, ratio = 2.5), 4) # CVwT > CVwR
  t   <- numeric(5)
  for (j in seq_along(t)) {
    t[j] <- system.time(sampleN.scABEL.sdsims(CV = CV, design = "2x3x3",
                                              progress = FALSE, details = FALSE,
                                              print = FALSE)[["Sample size"]])[3]   }
  cat(sprintf("%.2f seconds", median(t)), "\n")
}


BTW, I love that in 4.0.0 the default of stringsAsFactors was changed to FALSE.

Slightly OT: :-D:-D I am relieved to hear it is not only me who has trouble with it. I can't tell you how many times I have been on the verge of a mental breakdown because I absentmindedly leave out that effing parameter. Happened as recently as yesterday. R is a smart language but I am not a very smart coder :sleeping:

I have to admit I am frequently also resorting to stuff like

AN=function(x) {return(as.numeric(as.character(x)))}

in order to compensate for the errors and omissions I make left and right and everywhere on data frames. It is disgusting, I know. :crying:

Dear Helmut,

Nope, v3.6.3 was gone three days ago. Sorry about that. However, I still run your codes on different platforms and got the following result:
R v4.0.0

platforms           elapsed time (sec)
--------------------------------------

❝ BTW, I love that in 4.0.0 the default of stringsAsFactors was changed to [FALSE


Indeed. That's a great improvement. I like that too. BTW, there are some plural-form or plus s commands/functions, such as 'install.packages("foo")', 'file.exists("foo")'. Sometimes I got confused. I think it should be possible to make these the same, such as install.packages(...) = install.package(...), and file.exists(...) = file.exist(...) in the future. What do you think?

❝ Something I regularly forgot in imports or assigning data.frames;-)

 speed?

Hi Hi Yung-jin,

❝ Nope, v3.6.3 was gone three days ago. Sorry about that. However, I still run your codes on different platforms and got the following result: […]



THX, interesting! To test you assumption, I re-installed 3.6.3. Medians of five runs:

3.6.3: 31.11 seconds
4.0.0: 31.69 seconds


Hence, your gut feeling was possibly based on wishful thinking. ;-)

❝ BTW, there are some plural-form or plus s commands/functions, such as 'install.packages("foo")', 'file.exists("foo")'. Sometimes I got confused. I think it should be possible to make these the same, such as install.packages(...) = install.package(...), and file.exists(...) = file.exist(...) in the future. What do you think?


Yes, that’s strange.
Would be easy to define an alias in R-core, like we have in PowerTOST: CVfromCI()CI2CV(), CVwRfromU()U2CVwR().


Update
4.1.3: 32.70 seconds
4.2.0: 34.64 seconds
4.2.1: 33.46 seconds

Hi Helmut,

No way! Xeon CPU? unless you assemble the motherboard yourself. However, I heard Xeon is a great and cheaper CPU. Some people get Xeon from retired server machines. It is not so easy to find the motherboard from the market to fit Xeon right now. So it's a very special PC. Indeed.

Hi Yung-jin,

❝ ❝ Five years old Xeon @3.4GHz (not overclocked), 16MB, 64bit Win 7.

❝ No way! Xeon CPU?


Yessir!

❝ unless you assemble the motherboard yourself.

On the contrary and for a reason.

❝ Some people get Xeon from retired server machines. It is not so easy to find the motherboard from the market to fit Xeon right now. So it's a very special PC. Indeed.


It’s a workstation. All Xeons (for servers and workstations) have their desktop counterparts with the same architecture. For my Xeon it’s a Core i3. The main differences are: Generally larger L3-cache, require motherboards with other chip­sets than desktop systems supporting server-grade unbuffered ECC RAM, rated for continuous 100% CPU load.
Since I regularly run simulations 24/7 (for weeks) and a Folding@home-client, the last two points are important for me.
All this stuff is more expensive: Such mainboards are produced in much lower numbers, the EEC RAM is more complex, and last but not least the CPU itself.
Previously I had Dell workstations with double Xeons (i.e., before multi-cores were available) but the howling fans drove me crazy. Now I have a fan­less system (including the graphics card) with monstrous copper-coolers and double heatpipes. Weighs ~20 kg and came for 2,550 € in 2014 (2 × 256GB SSD, 4TB HD, GTX750 Ti, DVD writer, 430W PSU). The silence is deafening. :-D

Hi Jay,

Did you run source("preinst.r") before install bear? If yes, please run install.packages("RGtk2", type="source") to re-install RGtk2 package and see if it can be installed without any problem. I wonder RGtk2 was not installed successfully. Thus gWidgetsRGtk2 failed. BTW, I still work on bear v2.8.8 with R v4.0.0. If you have R v4.0.0 and Catalina macOS, please do not install bear right now. I will release bear v2.8.8 asap. Sorry about that.

 errors of installation bear with Catalina

Thanks for the reply, YJ. I ran preinst.r previously so I tried the install.packages("RGtk2", type="source") you suggested and it completes, but the last bit of the output shows this:

** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location
R session is headless; GTK+ not initialized.
** checking absolute paths in shared objects and dynamic libraries
** testing if installed package can be loaded from final location
R session is headless; GTK+ not initialized.
** testing if installed package keeps a record of temporary installation path
* DONE (RGtk2)


I''m not sure if that is a problem. After that, if I re-install bear, then I get the message

Hi Jay,

Rgiht. It sounds like gtk+ driver was not installed correctly. Did you install gtk+ driver with Macport first?

$ export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install pkgconfig
$ sudo port install gtk2 +x11


Make sure all above four steps end up with no error. Then run source("preinst.r") again. If you still get some errors, you may consider removing all R first. And re-install R (I saw you installing R v3.6.x from your messages.)

❝ ...** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location

❝ R session is headless; GTK+ not initialized.


❝ Need GTK+ ? (Restart R after installing)

Do not install gtk+ like this. It won't work with macOS. It only works for Windows OS.

 bear v2.8.8 pre-release built under R v4.0.0 for macOS

Hi Jay,

❝ Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘bear’:

❝ package ‘bear’ was installed before R 4.0.0: please re-install it

❝ Any suggestions?


My suggestion is you should search the Forum with 'package ‘bear’ was installed before R 4.0.0' (should be somewhere in this thread).
However in order to test your installations (quite tough,isn't it? :-D), I have uploaded bear v2.8.8 (pre-release) built under R v4.0.0 for macOS. You can find it and download it from my Google cloud HD (here). Place this *.tgz file under R working directory and type install.packages("bear_2.8.8.tgz",repos=NULL) [Enter] to install bear. Hotelling's T2 test of outlier detection analysis (ODA) is disabled for this pre-release. Why? See my previous post in this thread. I still work on it.

Hi Jay,

It's still the problem of gtk+ driver. Could you do install.packages("RGtk2", type="source") to see if you can install RGtk2 package from its source? This can verify if you have gtk+ driver installed correctly as we have discussed before.

Hi Jay,

Please download preinst.r from here and place it in your working directory, together with bear_2.8.8.tgz. Then run source("preinst.r"), and do("bear","bear_2.8.8.tgz"). This will re-install all required R packages with 'depend=TRUE' option, as well as bear. Good luck.

Ps. I don't know when the default of dependencies (or depend in short) option in install.packages() has been changed to 'NA'. It's default used to be 'depend=TRUE'. :confused:

Never (see the NEWS).
The default was/is install.packages(..., dependencies = NA). The man-page states:

The default, NA, means c("Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo").

 depend = NA means ...

Dear Helmut,

Right and thank you very much for your info. But this depend option within install.packages(...) has two choices, one is 'NA' and the other is 'TRUE'. :confused: And you're correct, when it is 'NA'(default), means c("Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo"). :confused: Does here 'NA' mean or imply 'FALSE' or what? If yes, why not using 'FALSE' instead of 'NA'? So I guess 'NA' is not 'FALSE' for depend option. NA is... NA.

 install.package() for the source packages

Dear Yung-jin,

let me comment

❝ Right and thank you very much for your info.

If yes, why not using 'FALSE' instead of 'NA'? So I guess 'NA' is not 'FALSE' for depend option. NA is... NA.


From the man:
The default, NA, means c("Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo").
TRUE means to use c("Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo", "Suggests") for pkgs and c("Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo") for added dependencies

So 'TRUE' is closer to NA. That's really a bit confusing and I don't know the history of that function argument. If set to 'FALSE', R still stop and warn you so you can decide what you would like to do
By the way if you install locally that's another story, since
Not used if repos = NULL...
So it is not possible to install dependent packages for a locally installed package within install.package()
There are solutions available:
- use devtools::install_local; there's an option to install dependencies from CRAN
- create and use your own repo

Kind regards,

Dear mittyri,

Thank you so much for your comments.

❝ ... By the way if you install locally that's another story, since

❝ So it is not possible to install dependent packages for a locally installed package within install.package()


Exactly. Recently I just wondered: I used to do install.packages("foo") for all dependent or required packages before installing bear. That meant I used install.packages("foo",depend=NA) as default. And it was OK. Now I use install.packages("foo",depend=TRUE) and it is OK too. So I was wondering if we really need to set depend=TRUE. I also found if I set depend=TRUE R will install much more packages in that case. For example, I need to install package A. Package A depends on 3 packages (package B, C and D). Should I also install simultaneously package B, C and D? Furthermore, if package B depends on another 3 packages (package E, F & G), then will the option of depend=TRUE for package A also enable R to install package E, F & G? Therefore, I do not think we need to set depend=TRUE. I think R will check all required packages first for the package that we want to install. Then R will install these required packages first and leave the package that we need to install at last. Am I correct?

❝ There are solutions available:

Great. I will try that.

Unless go to Github. Not a chance for Sourceforge. I will think about that too.

the difference between NA and TRUE is that the latter installs the packages from 'Suggests' section. They are not necessary for the essential package functions work (in theory).
You don't need to resolve the tree of dependencies of the packages, R will do that for you and installs all the tree (dependencies=TRUE just installs a little bit more). So just add an 'A' package inside imports section of description.
And yes, you don't need dependenices=TRUE, keep it with default value.

Hi, I am new to R and to this Forum, so I am not sure if this is the correct space to "Reply" or not. However, I keep getting the same error message that Jay got above even after I deleted both R and bear from my computer (Windows) and the Re-installed R 4.0.0 and bear successfully in that order. I did that twice and still got the same error message.
I am glad to see that I am not alone on this and that you are working on a solution. Would the new version 2.8.8 also work for in Windows?

 errors of installation bear (R v4.0.0) on Windows

Hi Andrew,

Please find bear_2.8.8.zip (built under R v4.0.0) in my Google cloud HD and download it. In addition, you should download preinst.r from SourceForge. Place the zip file and preinst.r under your R working directory. Open R console (Rgui.exe) as the system administrator, and type source("preinst.r") first, and then do("bear","bear_2.8.8.zip"). It will install all required R packages, as well as bear for you. When it finishes, close R console now and re-open it as the system admin again. Type library(bear) and go(). Now the system shows a pop-up dialogue and ask if you want to install GTK+ driver. Click install GTK+ driver. When it finishes, bear GUI will show up on your screen. Close it and also close R console. Now you can open R console as a general user. This is pre-release for bear v2.8.8. I still work on Hotelling's T2 of outlier detection analysis (ODA) (hopefully you do not need this test right now.). Other functions in this pre-release work fine. That's it.

Thank you for posting your question here. Let me know if you still have any problem to install bear on Windows.

 errors of installation bear (R v4.0.0) on Windows

Dear ylee168,
I have already installed Bear v2.8.8. and I decided to install GTK+ driver.
Unfortunately my screen says the following:

Loading required package: gWidgetsRGtk2
Error in (function (classes, fdef, mtable) :
unable to find an inherited method for function ‘.gwindow’ for signature ‘"guiWidgetsToolkitRGtk2"’

Warning message:
In library(package, lib.loc = lib.loc, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, :
there is no package called ‘gWidgetsRGtk2’

It is not the first time I install Bear for academic purpose, so...I installed gWidgetsRGtk2 and try again to install GTK, but nothing happens...my screen stops to talk to me...:confused:
Please, let me know what else I have to do.


Regards,

Regards,

Dear Yung-jin Lee
After I realized gWidgets and gWidgetsRGtk2 were not available as usual in CRAN, I just download both files.
I decide to remove BEAR package then...

I tried to load RGtk2, apparently something was wrong with the package:

Failed to load RGtk2 dynamic library, attempting to install it.
Please install GTK+ from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.22/gtk+-bundle_2.22.1-20101227_win32.zip
If the package still does not load, please ensure that GTK+ is installed and that it is on your PATH environment variable
IN ANY CASE, RESTART R BEFORE TRYING TO LOAD THE PACKAGE AGAIN
Error: package or namespace load failed for 'RGtk2':
 .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'RGtk2', details:
  call: NULL
  error: stack central desbordado


I reinstalled RGtk2 from CRAN repositories. Because cairoDevice is related whit GUI functionality, I decided reinstall it also, then:
library(RGtk2)
Dialog box opened then I agreed with installation of GUI. Later I installed gWidgets, when it finished I installed gWidgetsRGtk2, both from local files:
utils:::menuInstallLocal()
package ‘gWidgets2’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
utils:::menuInstallLocal()
* installing *source* package 'gWidgetsRGtk2' ...
** package 'gWidgetsRGtk2' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
** using staged installation
** R
** inst
** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading
** help
*** installing help indices
  converting help for package 'gWidgetsRGtk2'
    finding HTML links ... done
    as.gWidgetsRGtk2                        html 
    gWidgetsRGtk2-misc                      html 
    gWidgetsRGtk2-package                   html 
    gWidgetsRGtk2-undocumented              html 
    gdfedit                                 html 
** building package indices
** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location
** testing if installed package can be loaded from final location
** testing if installed package keeps a record of temporary installation path
* DONE (gWidgetsRGtk2)

Finally I installed BEAR v 2.8.8.
utils:::menuInstallLocal()
package ‘bear’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked


It Works perfectly now... :ok:

Sorry for my late response, I had to verify my notes.

 Accidentally perfect?

Hi elba,

❝ [...]

❝ I tried to load RGtk2, apparently something was wrong with the package:

❝ I reinstalled RGtk2 from CRAN repositories...


OK.

❝ [...] Later I installed gWidgets, when it finished I installed gWidgetsRGtk2, both from local files:

❝ package ‘gWidgets2’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked


However, what you installed was gWidgets2, not gWidgets.

❝ It works perfectly now... :ok:


So bear can work with gWidgets2 too? I doubt it. :confused::confused: I guess that you must install/upgrade R into the same file directory. That can keep gWidgets package unchanged. Accidentally perfect?

❝ Sorry for my late response, I had to verify my notes.


That's fine. Thanks for your response.

All the best,

Oops! the downloaded file was gWidgets_0.0-54.tar.gz, so the installed file was gWidgets. No perfection in this typo mistake.:-)
