This directory contains binaries for a base distribution and packages to run on Mac OS X (release 10.2 and above). Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2 (and Mac OS X 10.1) are no longer supported but you can find the last supported release of R for these systems (which is R 1.7.1) here
Note: CRAN does not have Mac OS X systems and cannot check these binaries for viruses. Altough we take precautions when assembling binaries, please use the normal precautions with downloaded executables.
Please check the MD5 checksum of the downloaded image to ensure that it has not been tampered with or corrupted during the mirroring process. For example type
md5 R-2.10.1.pkg
in the Terminal application to print the MD5 checksum for the R-2.10.1.pkg image.
| R-2.10.1.pkg (latest version) MD5-hash: 4067cd81d23814516c10db4972c0e762 (ca. 38MB) |
Three-way universal binary of R 2.10.1 for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and higher. The above file is an Installer package which can be installed by double-clicking. Depending on your browser, you may need to press the control key and click on this link to download the file. This package only contains the R framework, 32-bit GUI (R.app) and 64-bit GUI (R64.app). For Tcl/Tk libraries (needed if you want to use tcltk) and GNU Fortran (needed if you want to compile packages from sources that contain FORTRAN code) please see the tools directory. |
| R-2.10.1.dmg MD5-hash: 0e40051b9cfb9f218c1ac32cc5769731 (ca. 67MB) |
Legacy universal binary of R 2.10.1 for Mac OS X 10.4.4 (32-bit only). This legacy release is only recommended for compalibility with old Mac OS X 10.4 systems. This is a disk image containing the installer of R for Mac OS X 10.4.4 or higher. This image also contains Tcl/Tk libraries (for X11) and GNU Fortran 4.2.3 for both PowerPC and Intel Macs. Depending on your browser, you may need to press the control key and click on this link to download the file. To install R simply double-click on icon of the multi-package "R.mpkg" contained in the R-2.10.1.dmg disk image. |
| R-2.10.1-mini.dmg MD5-hash: 40c53429f0059c9c248b2179c529d8ba (ca. 32MB) |
Legacy universal binary of R 2.10.1 for Mac OS X 10.4.4 (32-bit only), upgrade package without supplemental tools. This is a subset of the above image. Unless a full R 2.8.0 or later installer was used before, it is not possible to compile packages from Fortran sources when this smaller subset is used. Only binary installs will work correctly. Also Tcl/Tk will not work unless installed separately. The supplemental tools are also available in the tools directory. |
| Mac-GUI-1.30.tar.gz MD5-hash: d71a815b83fe4c82050c09915aa14f4c |

Information, tools and most recent daily builds of the R GUI, R-patched and R-devel can be found at http://R.research.att.com/. Please visit that page especially during beta stages to help us test the Mac OS X binaries before final release!
Package maintainers should visit CRAN check summary page to see whether their package is compatible with the current build of R for Mac OS X.
