[R-SIG-Mac] Rggobi MacOS X installation

[Simon Urbanek]

I'd suggest to ask ggobi people for help, because this has nothing to 
do with R.

As the error messages suggest you should have a look at the GTK 
extensions that come with ggobi. I recall that I had to patch a few 
things to make it work - but that was a while ago. (I never used Rggobi 
though).

 From what I can see you're using fink - I'm not sure if that ancient 
setup is still supported. In most cases it causes many problems. Last 
time I was working on ggobi it compiled well with native OS X libraries 
(i.e. the packaged OS X ports of those).

Cheers,
Simon
