Installing on OS X #12

Closed zaprice closed 8 years ago

zaprice commented 9 years ago

When installing the package on a machine where the OpenSSL dev libraries aren't in the expected place, you have to disable the configure script to install correctly. Ex. on OS X, I had to run:

R CMD INSTALL --configure-args="INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2d_1/include LIB_DIR=/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2d_1/lib" --no-configure ~/Downloads/openssl_0.4.tar.gz

This took a while to troubleshoot so I figured it was worth noting here. May be useful to add it to the README.

Is this the version from CRAN or github? What do you get if you just try:

devtools::install_github("jeroenooms/openssl")

OSX includes a copy of openssl (without brew) so it should always work.

You could also set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH var. This works for me:

Sys.setenv(PKG_CONFIG_PATH = "/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2d_1/lib/pkgconfig/")
devtools::install_github("jeroenooms/openssl")

It is the CRAN version. I unlinked the homebrew OpenSSL package and tried it again. The CRAN version doesn't install, but the Github version does.

Running install.packages("openssl") gives:

File /usr/include/openssl/rand.h not found. Make sure the OpenSSL development library is installed, e.g. libssl-dev (deb) or openssl-devel (rpm).
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘openssl’

I also tried setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH as above and it didn't change anything.

The latest version of the configure script should automatically find the homebrew version of openssl from /usr/local/opt/openssl and verify that the version is correct (ie. at least 1.0.0)
