Error during installation

[dkgaraujo]

Hi! I tried installing the github version (sessionInfo() below), but I received the following error:

Error: Failed to install 'export' from GitHub:
  lazy-load database '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.0/Resources/library/processx/R/processx.rdb' is corrupt
In addition: Warning message:
In get0(oNam, envir = ns) : internal error -3 in R_decompress1

I accepted the update of all packages, including those with source code versions more up-to-date than available binaries.

Below is the result of my sessionInfo(). Thank you very much for any guidance on how to solve this.

Hello @dkgaraujo There seems to be an issue with your processx install. The associated data object is corrupt. Did you already try to remove it (remove.packages("processx")) and install it again (install.packages("processx"))?

Hi @cvanderaa - thank you for your proposed solution. I can confirm that it worked for me, and I was able to load export. However, as a note for others, I also had to reinstall broom and backports.
