[R] RMySQL and MAC OS X

[Fernando Pineda]

Has anyone had success using the RMySQL package under Mac OS 
X/Darwin? I've been trying on and off for a few months with no 
success. Most recently I installed the Darwin R-1.5.1 distribution 
from (ftp://gifi.stat.ucla.edu/pub), but to no avail, I still get a 
"bus  error" when I try to connect (see below).

I have verified that  I can log into MySQL from a shell with the 
host/user/password combination that I'm passing to dbConnect.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

-- Fernando
