Error in loadNamespace

[hvqd38]

Hello,

I am trying to install the RangeShiftR package from GitHub into RStudio using the following line of code:

devtools::install_github("https://github.com/RangeShifter/RangeShiftR-package", ref = "main")
install.packages("RangeShiftR")

I have ran this code before and it has worked and successfully installed the package, but on this occasion I am getting an error that I have not seen before. This is the error message:

Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]) :
there is no package called ‘fs’
In addition: Warning message:
In readLines (file, skipNul = TRUE):
cannot open compressed file 'C:/Program Files/AppJ/R/R-4.2.2/library/matrixStats/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory'

I am able to download the 'fs' package, but then when I try installing 'RangeShiftR' again, it gives the same error but for the package 'cli'.

I am not sure what is going on and was wondering if anyone could help me??

The sessionInfo is:
R version 4.2.2 (2022-10-31 ucrt)

It may be worth noting that I am running this code through a remote desktop.

Thanks!

Hi,
I have a feeling that this issue is not necessarily related to the RangeShiftR-package, but I am happy to try to help and fix the issue.
I already tested whether RangeShiftR can be installed with R 4.2.2 (on a linux HPC where the same version is installed) and I was able to installed it without errors.

Could you maybe provide me with more information?

• Have you installed RangeShiftR before on that remote desktop?
• Are the necessary packages Rcpp, Rdpack (and devtools) installed (successfully)? (testing Rcpp::evalCpp("2+2"))
• Is the error message occurring directly after sending the devtools... command?

Hi,

Apologies for the delay in response, I have tried running my code on a different Remote Desktop server and it is working so I am assuming it was a faulty connection with the server causing the error.

Thank you for your response!
