Installation problem

[Ravindra-Raut]

I got the following error after running the command: install.packages("remotes") remotes::install_github("davedgd/ggNestedBarChart")

OUTPUT: R inst byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading help * installing help indices building package indices installing vignettes testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘data.table’ in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib): shared object ‘datatable.so’ not found Error: loading failed Execution halted ERROR: loading failed

Ah, I see the issue. There's a new release of the data.table package that requires a source compile since binary versions aren't widely available yet. To resolve this, try the following:

install.packages("data.table", type = "binary")
install.packages("devtools") # or use remotes here and below
devtools::install_github("davedgd/ggNestedBarChart")

You may still get a message about updating packages that have "more recent versions available"; if you do, go with "None" when asked which ones to update, similar to below (i.e., choice 3 in the screenshot below):

This should resolve the issue, which unfortunately seems to be about source compilations rather than something I can directly fix. By the by, ensuring all the various R tools are installed as described in the links below may be another way of resolving the issue more directly:

Hopefully this helps!

I'm hoping this issue is fixed, but please let me know if not; closing for now!
