Update install instructions #66

Closed thokall closed 4 months ago

thokall commented 4 months ago

Had some issues installing strataG with the instructions in the README.md. The package does not seem to be available on CRAN anymore and trying to get it from other repos worked, but meant that I ended up with a version that required at least version 1.4.2 of sprex and the latest on CRAN is 1.4.1. The install instructions using devtools also failed as building the vignette needs version 1.4.2 of sprex. New instructions put emphasis on getting the correct version of sprex prior to installing strataG

The latest version of sprex can be installed from here

Indeed and that link is part of my proposed change to the readme.

I have it working on my system, but it took some time figuring out why I could not build strataG using devtools, and before that I spent some time trying to sort out why it was not found on CRAN and possible to install the “standard” R way.
