Installation Error: lidR/Point.h: No such file or directory

[azh2]

I am getting the following fatal error which is preventing package compilation, I received the same error trying to build the package manually in RStudio:

C_lastree_hamraz.cpp:2:10: fatal error: lidR/Point.h: No such file or directory

include <lidR/Point.h>

      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

compilation terminated.
