I am trying to install an R package from source, but getting an error:

I don't have /usr/local/lib/gcc/x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
, so it makes sense that it can't be found. I have /usr/local/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin11
and /usr/local/lib/gcc/4.8
(symlink to Homebrew installation). Where is it getting x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
from?
There are a lot of references to a similar error online. However, all of them are related to compiling in Xcode and resolved by updating project settings, which is not applicable here.
You need to modify the ~/.R/Makevars
file. For a greater overview of this see: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#OS-X-packages
Alternatively, this has been answered before in a bit more depth by @kevin-ushey in Rcpp warning: "directory not found for option '-L/usr/local/Cellar/gfortran/4.8.2/gfortran'".
What is happening is your code is not being run under gcc
instead it is being forwarded to clang
You will need to change your compile statements in ~/.R/Makevars/
to gcc
using:
VER=-5.3.0
CC=gcc$(VER)
CXX=g++$(VER)
CFLAGS=-mtune=native -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -Wconversion
CXXFLAGS=-mtune=native -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -Wconversion
FLIBS=-L/usr/local/Cellar/gcc/5.3.0/lib/gcc/5
This assumes you have already installed gcc
via homebrew under:
brew install gcc
(gfortran ships with gcc in brew now)
