Hello!

If I launch R from a console I get:


R : Copyright 2004, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing
Version 1.9.0  (2004-04-12), ISBN 3-900051-00-3

> help.start()
Making links in per-session dir ...
If /usr/bin/open is already running, it is *not* restarted, and you
    must switch to its window.
Otherwise, be patient ...
> dyld: /usr/bin/open version mismatch for library: 
/usr/local/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (compatibility version of user: 9.0.0 
greater than library's version: 8.0.0)


This was with the default (browser="/usr/bin/open").

I also tried with:

> options(bowser="/usr/bin/open -a /Applications/firefox.app")
> help.start()
Making links in per-session dir ...
If /usr/bin/open is already running, it is *not* restarted, and you
    must switch to its window.
Otherwise, be patient ...
> dyld: /usr/bin/open version mismatch for library: 
/usr/local/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (compatibility version of user: 9.0.0 
greater than library's version: 8.0.0)
dyld: /usr/bin/open version mismatch for library: 
/usr/local/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (compatibility version of user: 9.0.0 
greater than library's version: 8.0.0)


After that, I check my fink installation:

.~/$ fink -V
Package manager version: 0.20.2
Distribution version: 0.7.0.cvs 

And...

.~/fink list libxml

 i   libxml2            2.6.7-1        XML parsing library, version 2
 i   libxml2-bin        2.6.7-1        XML parsing library, version 2
 i   libxml2-shlibs     2.6.7-1        XML parsing library, version 2
 

So far, no upgrades are available in fink's repositories. Perhaps Stefano
could help us. So, I'm submitting a copy of this mail. I don't know if 
this qualify as a bug, but I'm including R-bugs. I'll be not able to work 
on this full-time till Saturday. 

Regards.
