Installation issue

[williamlai2]

Describe the bug When I try to install galah, I get this error:

* installing *source* package 'galah' ...
** package 'galah' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
** using staged installation
** R
Error in parse(outFile) : 
  C:/Users/laiw/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpGUMgpI/R.INSTALL389cf7b3b46/galah/R/build.R:157:27: unexpected input

157:       sub("\\]$", "", x = _
                               ^
ERROR: unable to collate and parse R files for package 'galah'
* removing 'C:/Users/laiw/Documents/R/win-library/4.1/galah'
Warning in install.packages :
  installation of package ‘galah’ had non-zero exit status

Which is in here https://github.com/AtlasOfLivingAustralia/galah-R/blob/main/R/build.R

Should the underscore be in quotes?

galah version I tried with the version on CRAN as well as the development version. Both seem to be 2.0.2

To Reproduce install.packages("galah")

Expected behaviour It should install without an error.

Thanks for reporting this William! That’s an odd one; obviously the tests didn’t pick it up, but there isn’t an obvious syntax error either. I notice you’re on an older version of R; does this persist in more recent versions?

[williamlai2]

Thanks Martin. That was on the work computer. But I haven't ever seen that issue on any other packages.

I'm running on 4.3.1 at home and it installed fine on there.

OK in that case I'm gonna treat this as an issue with legacy versions of R and close it; we test on current, development and one previous version of R by default, so this is pretty far outside of our support window. Interesting that the issue in question is with native pipes, which should be supported for all versions of R from 4.0 onwards.
