pak not installing latest version of package available on CRAN #582

Closed fh-mthomson closed 5 months ago

fh-mthomson commented 5 months ago

paws 0.5.0 was published to PPM on 01/16, but pak is not automatically installing it although install.packages() does.

options(repos = "https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/__linux__/jammy/latest")

# 0. install previous release
pak::pak("paws@0.4.0")

# Restart R ----

# 1. pak does NOT find updated version (0.5.0)
pak::pak('paws')
packageVersion('paws') # 0.4.0

# 2. install.packages does
install.packages('paws')
packageVersion('paws') # 0.5.0

I cannot reproduce this:

→ Will download 1 package with unknown size.

Try updating the cached metadata:

Thank you for the quick response! Confirming pak::meta_update() did the trick.
