The code below results in a HTTP error 404.

remotes::install_github("gpw13/billionaiRe", build_vignettes = TRUE)

Hi @lbianchi ,

Can you provide the full error message you get?

billionaiRe is depending on two private repos: wppdistro and whdh. The error message from remotes in that case is not the most useful.

It is expected that you would get an error 404 if you don't have access to those packages:

Downloading GitHub repo gpw13/billionaiRe@HEAD
Error: Failed to install 'billionaiRe' from GitHub:
  HTTP error 404.
  Not Found

  Did you spell the repo owner **(`WorldHealthOrganization`)** and repo name **(`wppdistro`)** correctly?
  - If spelling is correct, check that you have the required permissions to access the repo.

Hello @ElliottMess .

You perfectly explained the cause of the error. Since I don't have access to the wppdistro , I won't be able to install it.

The error is exactly what you wrote above.

Very sorry about this, I know it's frustrating but it is outside of our controle.
