citr currently not available from CRAN #75

Open diatomm opened 3 years ago

diatomm commented 3 years ago

Hi folks, Maybe I am missing something but I can't citr for the current version of R. Is this coming? Is there anything I can do to help? Cheers, -LA

Likewise, but I installed on my desktop yesterday after updating to 4.0.3, but it failed after updating on my laptop today.

devtools::install_github("crsh/citr")

yields:

Downloading GitHub repo crsh/citr@HEAD Skipping 1 packages not available: RefManageR Installing 2 packages: bibtex, RefManageR Installing packages into ‘C:/Users/leon/Documents/R/win-library/4.0’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Error: Failed to install 'citr' from GitHub: (converted from warning) package ‘RefManageR’ is not available for this version of R

Hi everyone, thanks for reaching out. Currently, RefManageR is not distributed via CRAN. Because citr depends on RefManageR it was also taken down. As far as I understand, this the maintainer of RefManageR wants to address the problems and, hence, citr should be back on CRAN as soon as that happens. For the time being you can install RefManageR (and citr) from GitHub.

remotes::install_github("ropensci/RefManageR")
remotes::install_github("crsh/citr")

Thank you!

Yep: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RefManageR/ says "Archived on 2020-10-27 for policy violation. " Nothing to do with that election, I hope!

Thanks crsh. Fixed the problem for me too.

diatomm commented 3 years ago

This was very helpful. Thank you.

GegznaV commented 3 years ago

RefManageR is on CRAN again since 2020-11-13. Could citr reappear there too?

crsh commented 3 years ago

Thanks for reaching out. I'll try to resubmit before the end of the week.

antondutoit commented 3 years ago

Thanks crsh. The paper I'm working on at the moment is in Word (lit review) but the next will be in RMarkdown so the timing is perfect.

Hi, I just stumbled on this problem myself, and was relieved to find this issue and see that citr is still alive and well! Given that the issue is still ongoing, would it be sensible/doable to mention this in the README in the meantime? (Assuming there is still something blocking getting it back on CRAN.) Just a link to this issue and instructions for how to install from GitHub would've saved me some time and confusion.

Thanks But it doesn't work (Rstudio 1.4, R 4.0.3)

crsh commented 3 years ago

Could you elaborate on that? What error message are you seeing?

JohannPopp commented 3 years ago

Dear Frederik,

first of all: Thank you for maintaining the wonderful citr-package. I probably have the same issue as hao203. I have installed citr on RStudio 1.4.1106 and R 4.0.5.

running

citr:::insert_citation()

returns the following error:

Fehler in citr:::insert_citation() : The use of this addin requires RStudio 0.99.796 or newer (your version is 1.4.1106).

I hope that this helps to debug.

Sincerely yours Johann Popp

mengliuveronica commented 3 years ago

Hi, I ran into the same error message as JohannPopp, I wonder if there is any way to fix it? Thanks!
