R install does not install correct paths for libR.dylib in so's

[jowens (John Owens)]

I don't know that much about the install process here ... but to link R with rpy, I have to manually run install_name_tool to change all the instances of libR.dylib to the correct path for libR.dylib.

  503  cd  /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
  504  ls
  505  otool -L _rpy2061.so 
  506  install_name_tool -change libR.dylib /opt/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib _rpy2061.so 
  507  sudo _rpy2061.so
  508  sudo install_name_tool -change libR.dylib /opt/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib _rpy2061.so 
  509  otool -L _rpy2061.so 
  510  cd /opt/local/lib/R/library/methods/libs/
  511  otool -L methods.so 
  512  sudo install_name_tool -change libR.dylib /opt/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib methods.so 
  513  cd /opt/local/lib/R/library/grDevices/libs/
  514  otool -L grDevices.so 
  515  sudo install_name_tool -change libR.dylib /opt/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib grDevices.so 
  516  cd /opt/local/lib/R/library/stats/libs/
  517  otool -L stats.so 
  518  sudo install_name_tool -change libR.dylib /opt/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib stats.so 
  519  cd /opt/local/lib/R/modules/
  520  otool -L R_X11.so 
  521  sudo install_name_tool -change libR.dylib /opt/local/lib/R/lib/libR.dylib R_X11.so

Portfile: upgrade to R 2.6.2 and fixes bug #13831

[konis@…]

I added all the correct library install names by brute force. I'll try to learn a little tcl so I can do this more elegantly. Note that install paths in R packages added later (for example: using the install.packages function or R CMD INSTALL) will not be set.

Thanks for the update! I committed your whitespace changes in r34155 and the update to 2.6.2 with the library install name fixes in r34156.

You should probably acquaint yourself with the tcl foreach function to make this portfile much simpler.
