Trouble installing package #8

Closed sbhattacharyay closed 4 years ago

sbhattacharyay commented 4 years ago

The package lolR is no longer available on CRAN. When I try install.packages("lolR"), I receive the following error message:

Warning in install.packages : package ‘lolR’ is not available (for R version 3.6.1)

When I try to install the package via devtools::install_github('neurodata/lol', build_vignettes=TRUE, force=TRUE), I receive the following error message:

Error: Failed to install 'lolR' from GitHub: Does not appear to be an R package (no DESCRIPTION) In addition: Warning messages: 1: In utils::untar(tarfile, ...) : returned error code 1 2: In system(cmd, intern = TRUE) : running command 'tar.exe -tf had status 1

I was able to resolve the issue when manually re-installing the glue and backports packages and refusing to download updates when installing lolR from github.

Thanks!
