Unable to install - Error: Failed to install 'ggtext' from GitHub #29

Closed DesmondChoy closed 4 years ago

Hello,

After running 

remotes::install_github("wilkelab/ggtext")

I'm getting the following error:

Error: Failed to install 'ggtext' from GitHub:
  (converted from warning) unable to access index for repository https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.6:
  cannot open URL 'https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.6/PACKAGES'

Could you advise how I might be able to resolve this? Thank you.

This error doesn't make a lot of sense to me. It's most likely during the installation of the required dependencies. Can you try to install them separately, with install.packages()? It's all the packages listed here (except "grid", which comes with R): https://github.com/wilkelab/ggtext/blob/24e9cd059e599e1ce39bfaf3951d09cccc0aad99/DESCRIPTION#L20-L24

Yes you're right - installed the dependencies separately, and ggtext was subsequently installed successfully :) Thank you!
