The next release of R is scheduled for mid April - I will look into making R universal then.

Bump. ncurses and readline are universal as far as I can see.

Maintainer here: R is really difficult to make universal with MacPorts. The configure, build, and destroot phases need to be run independently for each architecture and I have no idea how to do that. If there's a really good reason R needs to be universal I can look into it again but otherwise I would rather just mark this bug as wontfix.

Salut Kjell, have you tried making R part of the universal group? It should provide what is required, i.e. separate configure, build, and merge of archs before destrooting. Tja, Vincent

yeah, check out cairo as a good example. The key bits are in the muniversal PortGroup
