Hi there,
I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.7 (PPC) and R 2.3.1. I've tried several
times to install Amelia from source into R, and I keep getting an
error message back that indicates that it seems to have been built
for pentium chips. A transcript of the R session follows. I loaded
Zelig in, then tried to load Amelia in. (Result: "Error: package
'Amelia' was built for i386-pc-mingw32") When the latter failed, I
tried to install from the gking.harvard.edu repository, and I got the
error message "chmod: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.3/
Resources/library/Amelia/libs/ppc/*"
Is this something to be fixed on my end or on the other end?
Thanks for any help you can give.
Best,
