[R-SIG-Mac] "gsl" does not seem to find installed GSL

[Marius Hofert]

Dear Roy,

thanks for helping.

Can you explain how that solves the problem? I have a *working*
version of GSL 1.16 installed (as far as I see, Simon provides these
as well on the website you mentioned). But I don't see how that should
help me installing the R *package* gsl (?)

Cheers,
Marius
