Error when loading package

[jmbh]

Hi Guys,

I'm getting the following error when trying to load the package:

Same with the CRAN version and the latest Github version.

Here is my session info:

Any ideas how to resolve this?

Thanks for flagging. I just did a quick check of this. I believe it was introduced with the recent macos update. I'm still on Ventura and have no issues loading the package.

OpenGL has been depreceated for macos since 2022, so might not be supported for the most recent update and be the reason it breaks.

Will try to take a closer look in the next days and see if I have a more useful and helpful response to this

Hey, this indeed looks a bit weird, but I don't think we can solve this on our end. The error comes not from NetworkComparisonTest but rather from rgl (e.g., unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.3-arm64/Resources/library/rgl/libs/rgl.so').

rgl is a dependency (actually a Suggests) of multiple packages we import, most notably igraph.

Perhaps make an issue over at https://github.com/dmurdoch/rgl/issues?
