[R-SIG-Mac] rattle doesnt rattle

[David Winsemius]

You have not included sessionInfo(), so you are on your own as far as  
picking the correct version, but the ATT Research site has versions of  
GTK+ that match the R 2.10.1 compilation headers or connection points  
or whatever they are properly called.

http://r.research.att.com/#other

On an OSX 10.5.8 machine that GTK+ 2.18.5 framework and rattle in R  
2.10.1 peacefully co-exist at least to the extent of letting rattle  
boot up and display its dialog box.
