[R-SIG-Mac] Could not install Package:pdftools in Mac lion 10.7.5

[Christofer Bogaso]

I fix one problem and another problem pops up. After fixing default
locale, I am getting below error when I try loading pdftools :

> install.packages('/Users/ARR/pdftools_1.0.tgz', repos = NULL)
> library(pdftools)
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
