Cannot connect to dylib when installing R package sf from binary on MacOS

Help
1

Hi there,
I’m a relatively new nix user and I’ve been trying to get a system environment for R projects with nix and managing packages via renv. I’ve followed a workaround to get binary packages to install as this hugely improves environment build times. However, sf``, classInt, KernSmoothandRcpp` don’t connect to the right libraries. They try to find libraries on the standard R paths.

My current workaround is to install these packages from source but is there a way to make the dylib libraries “visible”?

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘sf’ in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):
