Cannot build RGtk2 in R

[LoouiseM]

Hi @lawremi,

I am trying to build RGtk2 in R in my PC (Windows 11) but no matter what I try, nothing works. It used to work 2 months ago on my Mac, but since then apparently something has changed. I am not sure how to use GTK+ either. Could you give me a hand?

Thank you!

To build the extant version of RGtk2 on Windows, use R 4.1.3. Or you can get the binaries with install.packages("https://access.togaware.com/RGtk2_2.20.36.2.zip", repos=NULL) for the same version of R. It can't be done with the current version of R (4.2).

After installing it, run library(RGtk2); you'll be prompted to install Gtk+.
