Hello: I tried to install the latest R2.6.1 on my Mac OS X machines. I have no problems installing it on my Mac OS X Tigr machine. But when I tried to install it on other Mac OS X 10.4.9 PowerPCs, I could not have the GNU Fortran and/or Tcl/Tk libraries installed. I always got the error message : There were errors installing the software, please try installing again. Does somebody have any idea what was going wrong? I had X11 installed on the machines, do I need to install other softwares before installing R? Thanks! -Shelley
