Problem installing RMINC on Mac

[christianlimberger]

Hi everyone,

I'm having this problem installing RMINC on macOS:

> Sys.setenv(MINC_PATH = "/opt/minc/1.9.18/")
> devtools::install_github("Mouse-Imaging-Centre/RMINC")

I have set the MINC_PATH and also have done the recommended steps here https://github.com/Mouse-Imaging-Centre/RMINC/blob/master/INSTALL

Do you have any idea how to solve this? Thank you!

I'm having a similar issue on M1 Mac OS 14.2.

Any solution?

Here is my error log.

[ZaidaEMtzMo]

Same issue. I even managed to get past the checking for HDF5 libraries... cc: error: unrecognized command line option '-show' cc: error: unrecognized command line option '-show' by installing everything in a conda environment and then installing hdf5 there:

conda install -c conda-forge hdf5

However, I still get the error configure: error: minc2 not found
This is not on Mac though, this is on Linux: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS

you can try conda install -c minc-forge r-rminc-sa - that will install RMINC and libminc but it supports only R versions 4.2.3 and 4.1.3

[hannalemmik]

I have an R environment with r-base 4.2.3 and conda install -c minc-forge r-rminc-sa fails with PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

• r-rminc-sa

Any tips?

[vfonov]

ok, my bad here, I forgot to compile r-rminc-sa for mac, but now I don't have a mac anymore.

You can still try installing conda install -c minc-forge minc-toolkit-v2 that have binaries for osx-arm64 and then install RMINC with remotes::install_github("Mouse-Imaging-Centre/RMINC")

[hannalemmik]

No luck for me: PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

• minc-toolkit-v2

Are you using Mac with ARM silicone ?
