Unable to install gifski

tcash21 commented 6 years ago

This is ultimately so I can install gganimate but having issues with installing. Found one post recommending install r-development but wondering if there's another workaround. Included my sessionInfo() at the bottom.

Can you try upgrading R to the latest version?

tcash21 commented 6 years ago

Yep that did it, thanks!

Hello, I need to stay with R 3.3.3, how can I then compile gifsky? I get the exact same error.

r-rust / gifski
