cannot install binary package built on same system, "is not available for this version of R" #134

Closed josherrickson closed 2 years ago

josherrickson commented 2 years ago

I'm using build(binary = TRUE) to try and build a binary version of my package. However, the package then immediately fails to install on the same system:

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,
see the ideas at
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages

I'm not sure how to proceed or how to even debug this.

Using R 4.1.2 installed via homebrew on Mac 12.2.1.

This has not much to do with pkgbuild. When installing from a file, you need to add repos to install.packages():

install.packages(..., repos = NULL)

Otherwise it will interpret the path as a package name, as the warning tells you:

package ‘/Users/josh/repositories/R/rrelaxiv_0.1.0.tgz’ is not available for this version of R
