i was able to fix that, too, by not using tar() but system(Sys.which("tar")) 
instead. though i'm using exactly the same options, the results of the R 
function tar() turn out to be unusable with OS X bsdtar, as it contains files 
of the same name twice. a similar problem was described here:

in essence, our plugin packages are now installable again on OS X.
