Can't clear check_language_envvar("LC_ALL") warning when running R scripts
Whenever I run an R script I get the following warning that I can't clear: ``` Warning messages: 1: In check_language_envvar("LC_ALL") : Changing language has no effect when envvar LC_ALL='C' 2: In check_language_envvar("LC_ALL") : Changing language has no effect when envvar LC_ALL='C' ``` When I ty...
Whenever I run an R script I get the following warning that I can't clear:
Warning messages:
1: In check_language_envvar("LC_ALL") :
  Changing language has no effect when envvar LC_ALL='C'
2: In check_language_envvar("LC_ALL") :
  Changing language has no effect when envvar LC_ALL='C'
When I type locale into iTerm, I get the following output:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_ALL="C"
I have absolutely no idea how to solve the issue, any help would be greatly appreciated.

How change $PATH for RStudio
I am trying to set my `$PATH` variable for RStudio. Somehow it just ignores the entry in my `~/.Renviron`. I added this lines: ``` PATH=$PATH:/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/bin R_MAX_VSIZE=100Gb ``` if I run `Sys.getenv("PATH")` it just shows my `PATH` without the addition I made. If I run `Sys.getenv("R_MAX...
I am trying to set my $PATH variable for RStudio. Somehow it just ignores the entry in my ~/.Renviron. I added this lines:
PATH=$PATH:/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/bin
R_MAX_VSIZE=100Gb
if I run Sys.getenv("PATH") it just shows my PATH without the addition I made. If I run Sys.getenv("R_MAX_VSIZE") it shows 100Gb, so the .Renviron file is recognized. What am I doing wrong here?

Installing R 4.2.2 (ARM) fails
I am trying to update from R 4.2.1 to R 4.2.2 via the .pkg installer. However, I can't install since I get the message `The installation failed. The installer encountered an error and let me contact the software manufacturer.` You can see a [similar case here](https://discussions.apple.com/thread/25...
I am trying to update from R 4.2.1 to R 4.2.2 via the .pkg installer. However, I can't install since I get the message The installation failed. The installer encountered an error and let me contact the software manufacturer. You can see a [similar case here](https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254559856) . Seems like the only available solution so far is to reinstall macOS and I really want to avoid that. Anyone else having this problem? I also tried to trash the R.app, but it was of no use. I could also delete the R.framework folder, but I doubt it will be of any use. Any ideas here? EDIT: I could succesfully install via commandline $ sudo installer -pkg R-4.2.2-arm64.pkg -target /. The same problem occurred trying to install XQuartz-2.8.5, which I could also succesfully install via CLI. Not all .pkg fail via GUI though. I could install Adobe Reader successfully via GUI. /var/log/install.log show the same error for RStudio and XQuartz:

Switch from GFortran "for R" 12.0 to 12.2
I am using the GFortran compiler 12.0 once available from https://mac.r-project.org/tools (old version available on archive.org). This was just a xz archive that was installed using `tar fxz gfortran-12.0.1-20220312-is-darwin20-arm64.tar.xz -C /`. There is now an update provided as a `.pkg` file. Do...
I am using the GFortran compiler 12.0 once available from https://mac.r-project.org/tools (old version available on archive.org). This was just a xz archive that was installed using tar fxz gfortran-12.0.1-20220312-is-darwin20-arm64.tar.xz -C /. There is now an update provided as a .pkg file. Does anyone know, if it's safe to uninstall the old version just by
rm -rf /opt/R/arm64/bin/gfortran
rm -rf /opt/R/arm64/gfortran
and then installing the new version by the .pkg file. Unfortunately I haven't found information about updating by the developers.

I am new to coding and I am attempting to learn about [R](https://www.r-project.org) using online resources. I am wondering how to use R from an iPad when I’m away from a desktop/laptop (or if this is feasible at all)? I also don’t know much about operating systems, or the differences between a Mac and an iPad (particularly differences that would affect software installation). So I’m thinking it will be quite difficult for me to learn to use R from an iPad if it’s at all possible. But if someone else happens to have done it and is willing to post instructions, I would give it a shot.

, and go. But I keep getting all these error about libraries not loaded (
: Library not loaded: @rpath/libreadline.6.2.dylib
) and needed to update the sudoer file and changing permissions and then the sudoer ID isn't right. This should not be this difficult. What is going in here? I'm also running Mac OS Big Sur 11.1, if that matters.

How to delete R from the mac. Currently, Tidyverse package no longer works and thus I have to reinstall the R. But, I am not able to fully delete the programme as it keeps creeping back. What to do to completely uninstall R and R Studio from the mac. I can’t locate a script to remove all the things these packages installed nor able to find support from the R community. Is this documented anywhere?

When I launch RStudio Server from the host computer (http://localhost:8787) or remotely, it accepts my username and password but then I get this error: "RStudio Initialization Error: Unable to connect to service". This seems to be common with Linux installs, but none of those posted solutions solve the problem on my Mac. I tried logging in as different users and administrators but I the same error message either way.

I've recently upgraded to a new MBP (2015 series) and migrated my old machine via a time machine backup. Since the upgrade, I have been receiving error messages in the console of R at more or less random intervals. The warnings usually appear when I start the R.app, occasionally when I switch from another app (like TextMate) back to R.app, and then even more occasionally just on random. The messages typically look like this: > 2016-12-12 10:35:18.696 R[2635:12228] IMKInputSession presentFunctionRowItemTextInputViewWithEndpoint:completionHandler: : *NO* NSRemoteViewController to client, NSError=Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection from pid 0 was invalidated from this process."

I had already posted [a question on Stackoverflow about the latter problem](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40997541/r-warnings-imkclient-stall-detected) , but have not received any replies. I was hoping that you guys at Ask Different might have an idea of where this error comes from, and how I might be able to fix it.

(Following https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4725389/how-to-get-started-with-git-on-mac) Now I receive a continuous string of errors on every new Terminal window that I start, the first 3 lines of which are: -bash: ???H??: command not found -bash: command substitution: line 4: syntax error near unexpected token `(' -bash: command substitution: line 4: `:??H?u?H??HH?BH?E??H?? ]?ffff.?:?U??E??? enter image description here While the Terminal commands do go through after all the errors are listed, RStudio does not start, and the error pop-up states: "*Unexpected exception: Unmatched marking paranthesis ( or \(. The error occurred while passing the regular expression fragment: '* " enter image description here This error stays even on reinstallation of RStudio (while R works correctly) I've tried **resetting the Terminal** by deleting ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Terminal.plist but the error still persists. Really appreciate your help! --EDIT--- echo $PATH is also gives a string of errors, starting with /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:????:O"::D?M?A??H?

How to install a second instance of R on macOS and make it launch automatically
I am using an iMac at work that I inherited from a former coworker who already installed R as well as a number of packages before leaving.

I am using an iMac at work that I inherited from a former coworker who already installed R as well as a number of packages before leaving. My problem is that although I can install new packages from inside R-Studio, I cannot update them. I have a separate user account from my former coworker; my account has admin privileges and I expect my former coworker's account did too. When I launch R or R-Studio, I believe it is running from a directory somewhere on their account because I ran this command to see where packages were being installed: > Sys.getenv("R_LIBS_USER") "~/Library/R/3.3/library" ...and found that this path does not exist under my account but does exist under the account of my former coworker. When I try to update already-installed packages, this happens: > install.packages("shiny") trying URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.3/shiny_1.0.0.tgz ' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 2693218 bytes (2.6 MB) ================================================== downloaded 2.6 MB Error in install.packages : cannot remove prior installation of package ‘shiny’ I know that if I were to re-install R and R-Studio, it would create all the necessary support directories under my account but I am reluctant to delete my co-workers instance of R because I know that they have scripts and analyses on their account that might need to be re-run at some point and I would like to preserve the environment as much as possible. So my question is: how do I install a new instance of R under my account and make it the default instance of R for my user account? In case its relevant: I'm using an iMac from late 2013 I'm running OSX Yosemite 10.10.5

Setting locale via launch daemon - downside to this approach?

I have already set the locales in emacs (setq utf-translate-cjk-mode nil) ; disable CJK coding/encoding (Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters) (set-language-environment 'utf-8) ;; (set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8-mac) ; For old Carbon emacs on OS X only (setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8) (set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8) (set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8) (unless (eq system-type 'windows-nt) (set-selection-coding-system 'utf-8)) (prefer-coding-system 'utf-8) but this does not solve the problem. Now the following solution has been proposed here to set the environment through launchd. Now I am asking myself: This solution will set the locales for **all** processes started via launchd - is there a downside to using this approach?
