[R-SIG-Mac] Fail to install Rserve 1.8-6

[Simon Urbanek]

In install.packages(), i.e.:

install.packages("Rserve",,"https://rforge.net",configure.args="--without-proxy")

Cheers,
Simon

There are several options - you can download the Apple headers and explicitly link the still-existing system location by using full path to the dylibs in /usr/lib (it has to be the full path since linker will ignore /usr/lib for -l) [see PKI package]. Or you can install static OpenSSL build and use it [see openssl package]. Or you can install local shared version of OpenSSL, just be careful with that option as you don’t want to conflict with system’s LibreSSL.
