I'm unable to install the devtools
package in R Studio on a redhat linux server. These error messages showed up:
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘RCurl’
* removing ‘/home/xx/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.0/RCurl’
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘RCurl’ had non-zero exit status
ERROR: dependency ‘RCurl’ is not available for package ‘httr’
* removing ‘/home/xx/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.0/httr’
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘httr’ had non-zero exit status
ERROR: dependencies ‘httr’, ‘RCurl’ are not available for package ‘devtools’
I can't install the RCurl
package too. I've tried to install the libcurl
libraries too:
sudo yum install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo yum install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
But the system says no such packages are available available.
Is there any other way to install the devtools
package? Or how can I resolve the Rcurl
installation issue?
Building and installing: install() reinstalls the package, detaches the currently loaded version then reloads the new version with library() . Reloading a package is not guaranteed to work: see the documentation for unload() for caveats. build() builds a package file from package sources.
The devtools package contains functions that help with R package development. These functions include create , which creates the initial structure for a new package, as well as a number of functions for adding useful infrastructure to the package directory and functions to load and document the package.
Resolved!
Just need to install curl-config
