[R-SIG-Mac] Unable to use jpeg() in R.2.12.1

[Simon Urbanek]

Mandy,

this should be the relevant info that you should see:

hagal:~$ ls -l /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1078864 Dec  5  2007 /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.1.0.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1056752 Jun 17  2009 /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.3.0.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       25 Apr 13  2010 /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib -> libfontconfig.1.3.0.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       25 Apr 13  2010 /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.dylib -> libfontconfig.1.3.0.dylib

hagal:~$ otool -L /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.*|grep -A1 ^/             
/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.1.0.dylib:
	/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib (compatibility version 3.0.0, current version 3.0.0)
--
/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.3.0.dylib:
	/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0)
--
/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib:
	/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0)
--
/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.dylib:
	/usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0)


And the correct version should have been a part of the 10.5.8 system update:

hagal:~$ pkgutil --file-info /usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.dylib 
volume: /
path: usr/X11/lib/libfontconfig.dylib

pkgid: com.apple.pkg.X11User
pkg-version: 10.5.3.1.1.1191932192
install-time: 1271180430
uid: 0
gid: 0
mode: 120755

pkgid: com.apple.pkg.update.os.10.5.8.combo
pkg-version: 1.0.1.1191932192
install-time: 1271181602
uid: 0
gid: 0
mode: 120755


so if in doubt, try re-installing the 10.5.8 update:

Cheers,
