This is caused by a change to the R API, discussed here: https://bitbucket.org/lgautier/rpy2/issue/150/rpy2-crashes-upon-import-with-r-302 A fix has been implemented in rpy2 as of version 2.3.8. Recommend updating the existing math/rpy2 port to version 2.3.8. This can be trivially done by just bumping the version number in the Makefile and updating the distinfo. >How-To-Repeat: Install math/rpy2. It draws python2.7 and R 3.0.2 as dependencies. Open a python prompt and issue the command: from rpy2 import robjects as r it will respond with the error: Error: 'rho' must be an environment not NULL: detected in C-level eval Segmentation fault (core dumped) >Fix: Update math/rpy2 to version 2.3.8 >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
