trouble installing on macOS 14.6.1 (-pipe possibly causing problems?)

[simon-dedeo]

Below is the error message I'm gettings — for some reason, /opt/local/bin/gfortran-mp-13 -fPIC -pipe -Os -m64 -c hbin.f -o hbin.o fails, although if I remove -pipe by hand, that stage compiles just fine. I've tried to set FFLAGS to not include the -pipe, but somehow this isn't working — in that case, I tried

install.packages("hexbin", 
                 INSTALL_opts = c(
                   "--configure-vars='CFLAGS=-Os -isysroot /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX14.sdk -arch arm64 FFLAGS=-Os -m64 SAFE_FFLAGS=-Os -m64 FCLAGS=-Os -m64 FC=/opt/local/bin/gfortran-mp-13'"
                 ))

but the -pipe keeps appearing in the installation failure log.

Any suggestions on this? I've been trying to debug for a while. I'm running a pretty standard system, I think.

Why don't you install the binary package from CRAN?

[simon-dedeo]

I tried! That seems not to be possible for me — 

> install.packages("hexbin", type = "binary")
Error in install.packages("hexbin", type = "binary") : 
  type 'binary' is not supported on this platform

I'm on a Mac M1; my platform here is

Maybe ask at r-sig-mac?
