Not quite sure what this means. Any suggestions?

Mmmmh I haven't had this one yet. Does the problem still persist?

There seems to be an issue with the colorspace package - can you try to install it manually via install.packages() before trying to run remotes::install.github(). In general I have had a lot of issues installing from GitHub lately, especially on Windows. When there were installation issues with corrmorant, my experience was that it often worked better if you install all the dependencies by hand and then choose not to update anything when install.github() asks because this seems to break on some platforms when the packages that are to be updated are loaded already (and sometimes it wants to update packages that are always loaded).
