comment Creating a cross-compiler environment to build package binaries
Thanks for clarifying that Hadley. I'll just got myself some mac hardware for testing purposes and will checkout how everything runs after xcode is available

@DanielFischer: awesome! Haven't thought of virtual machines yet! That's sounds like the best alternative at the moment, thanks!

No, that's the thing I hoped to get around. Plus I've read that the Xcode tools aren't free of charge anymore: r-bloggers.com/…

comment Creating a cross-compiler environment to build package binaries
Well, I need to correct myself: I didn't try R CMD INSTALL --binary myPkg.tar.gz but used install.packages("path/to/mypkg.tar.gz", type="source") (which failed). That should have the same effect as running R CMD INSTALL, shouldn't it?

comment Creating a cross-compiler environment to build package binaries
By the way: setting up the development tools on windows is absolutely hassle free thanks to Duncan Murdoch's Rtools: cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools. If you could tell me what I need to do in Mac OS to put everything I need into place, I'd appreciate a pointer.

@DanielFischer: Well, first of: thanks for removing the "silly question". Second: I tried giving them a tar.gz of my package, but R complained about something not being the way Mac OS would expect it. Therefore the question.

comment How to handle dependencies (`Depends:`) of imported packages (`Imports:`)
In that respect: can't I tell R explicitly to look in imports:mypkg first, "no matter what" in the sense of "also when calling a package's function that relies on packages that have not been declared as imports in the package's NAMESPACE files"? Because mypkg would take care of importing the dependency, so its functions would actually be available in imports:mypkg

comment How to handle dependencies (`Depends:`) of imported packages (`Imports:`)
Ahhh, okay! Thanks for the pointer! One more question though: when my functions call functions in packages that my package imports, do I need to do anything special to tell R "hey, look in the imports:mypkg environment first before going to the search path" (e.g. by using ::) or does R figure that out itself?

comment How to handle dependencies (`Depends:`) of imported packages (`Imports:`)
I carried out the actual import via import(imported.pkg) and import(digest) in my NAMESPACE file (entire packages), that should do as well, shouldn't it? If something failed, there would also be no digest in the imports:mypkg environment - which there is.
