[R-SIG-Mac] package manager

[Carl Witthoft]

Two comments: first, not everyone has accesss to the CRAN or other 
depositories for direct installation.

That's my case, given my parent company's mad paranoia about internet 
access.

Second,  is it possible the people who are having trouble with the 
installer are not selecting the correct directory?  I had to play around 
a bit when installing from a package I'd previously downloaded and 
unzipped.  I think I finally figured out that I had to select the 
sub-folder titled "R" or something like that to get the installer to 
load the package.
