pillar not installing in R

[adsaxon]

I've repeatedly tried to install pillar from the CRAN repository. It keeps sending the message there is no package called 'pillar'. Hence when trying to load ggplot2, this message appears:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): there is no package called ‘pillar’

I just had the same issue, and installing from github using devtools worked:

# install.packages("devtools") devtools::install_github("r-lib/pillar")

hi, all my appveyor builds (which have a tibble dependency) died this morning because the r-release is no longer available. just want to check if the windows build will be re-sent to cran, or if this is a permanent change and i should add a Remotes: to my builds? thanks!

[deanhardy]

Thanks @mfox9! After running updateR() and getting the same error about pillar, your suggestion took care of the problem for me.

pillar is a dependency of tibble, and should be installed automatically when you install tibble. I sent an updated version of pillar to CRAN yesterday, this may be the reason for the outages you're seeing.

You can always install the development version via devtools::install_github() or remotes::install_github(), and usually installation from CRAN also just works.

seems to be resolved.. earlier today, the r-release windows binary on the pillar cran page linked to https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/3.4/ReadMe and not the zipped file that it links to now. thanks :)

[krlmlr]

Thanks for the heads-up.

Thank you very much "mfox9", your post is really a "fix" for this issue.!!!!

I am running 3.5.2 and can't install pillar or broom. I've tried the above 'fixes' but these bring more errors, as displayed here:

devtools::install_github("r-lib/pillar") Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘devtools’ devtools::install_github("r-lib/broom") Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘devtools’ install.devtools Error: object 'install.devtools' not found devtools::install_github() Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘devtools’ install.devtools Error: object 'install.devtools' not found remotes::install_github() Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘remotes’

[LouGallagher]

As to the above set of errors, I had to change the Global Options to specify the updated version of R I was using, 3.5.2 - not sure why that function doesn't happen automatically?

To install from GitHub you need to install devtools install.packages("devtools")

[krlmlr]

Thanks. Do you need to restart your R session?

In the future, can you please open a new issue? It's easy to overlook comments to closed issues.

Sorry about that I was reading through the previous comments and posted here. I tried restarting, removing package and reinstalling package. I uninstalled R completely and now will install the package in separate folder.

What if I get this mesagge after running it: These packages have more recent versions available. It is recommended to update all of them. Which would you like to update?

1: All
2: CRAN packages only
3: None
4: rlang (0.4.6 -> 0.4.7) [CRAN]

Enter one or more numbers, or an empty line to skip updates:
