R error: Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1/Resources/lib/libR.dylib

Question

R was working fine until the security app installed by my school run yesterday. I am having this issue, Library not loaded:/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1/Resources/lib/libR.dylib in some but not all packages.

Here is my R installation;

/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions ❯ l                                                                                                              02:53:02 PM

drwxrwxr-x  5 root  admin   160B May 20 13:29 4.1
drwxrwxr-x  6 root  admin   192B May 20 13:04 4.2
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin     3B May 20 13:03 Current -> 4.2

There is no lib/ in 4.1/Resources and a current version should be 4.2 but for some reasons, it looks for 4.1.

Interesting, if I run R from terminal but not Rstudio, everything works fine.

I'd appreciate any help to restore the libR.dylb path.

Answer 1

This is not a right fix but the way I did was as follows;

mv 4.1 4.1.old  
ln -s 4.2/ 4.1

This worked. For some unknown reasons, only in Rstudio, the path to the current R version, 4.2 is not recognized.
