MetaClean package deprecated #81

Closed tsufz closed 11 months ago

tsufz commented 1 year ago

Hi Rick, The MetaClean package was deprecated some while ago (as it's dependencies scmamp and fastADAboost) as they are stalled for some while (several years). Thus, for a non experienced user, it is impossible to compile all the sources and to install patRoon properly. Please consider removing the dependency on MetaClean.

Yours Tobias

Hi Tobias,

Thanks for the heads-up! I did notice that fastADABoost was removed, as a work around you can either install it from GitHub or MRAN, e.g. this is what I do with CI

remotes::install_github("souravc83/fastAdaboost")
install.packages('fastAdaboost', repos = 'https://mran.revolutionanalytics.com/snapshot/2022-07-01')

My hope was that fastADABoost would come back, but that doesn't seem to be the case as you mentioned.

I didn't notice scmamp though, will check that out.

Note that MetaClean is an optional dependency, so it shouldn't cause issues for the patRoon installation. In any case, I will upload the documentation for this.

The new installation procedure/docs handle this better now, so I think this can be closed.
