Error Installing rscopus #30

Closed joseprieto closed 4 years ago

joseprieto commented 4 years ago

After installing devtool and Rtools's packages, when I code: devtools::install_github("muschellij2/rscopus") It retrieves the following: Error: Failed to install 'rscopus' from GitHub: (converted from warning) cannot remove prior installation of package ‘curl’

The first part of the installation request you wheter update some packages or not. In this example, I don't make any update- It seems that curl is installed by default.

This is not an rscopus issue, but rather something from remotes.

Try 

withr::with_envvar(c(R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS="true"), 
  remotes::install_github('muschellij2/rscopus')
)

or 

Sys.setenv(R_REMOTES_STANDALONE="true")
remotes::install_github('muschellij2/rscopus')

and see https://github.com/r-lib/remotes#environment-variables
