Bad URL to GTK+ lib in Mac install instructions #19

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Read the install instructions 
http://datamining.togaware.com/survivor/Install_Macintosh.html
2. Install the specified version of GTK+ 
http://r.research.att.com/gtk2-framework.dmg
3. Try running rattle()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect it to run but get error to the console:

  Reason: Incompatible library version: RGtk2.so requires version 1801.0.0 or later, but
libgtk-x11-2.0.0.dylib provides version 1401.0.0

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

R 2.10.1, GTK+ 2.14

Please provide any additional information below.

Thanks to David Winsemius for the solution:

Use the GTK+ 2.18 package from AT&T instead of the one in the Rattle docs:
http://r.research.att.com/libs/GTK_2.18.5-X11.pkg

If that's not available, look for a newer one:
http://r.research.att.com/libs/

After installing that, Rattle works in R (32) and R64.

http://r.research.att.com/libs/GTK_2.18.5-X11.pkg is now a dead url, and the 
root appears to have no current GTK+ packages for OSX.
