Marcela, Be sure that you have first installed RTools. These are needed to compile any R package from source. You can find these at: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/
Note that for Mac users, there are additional steps as outlined in the geomorph installation page: http://www.geomorph.net/p/installing-geomorph.html Dean Dr. Dean C.

I have tried to install it using the GitHub commands on your message, however I keep running into the same error: “Warning: running command 'make -f "Makevars.win" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-32~1.2/etc/x64/Makeconf" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-32~1.2/share/make/winshlib.mk" SHLIB="geomorph.dll" WIN=64 TCLBIN=64 OBJECTS="geomorph.o"' had status 127 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'geomorph' * removing 'C:/Users/Marcela/Documents/R/win-library/3.2/geomorph' Would you have any advice on how I should proceed? Many thanks, Marcela Randau From: Adams, Dean [EEOBS] [mailto:dcad...@iastate.edu] Sent: 28 September 2015 10:45 To: morphmet@morphometrics.org<mailto:morphmet@morphometrics.org> Subject: [MORPHMET] Important update for geomorph Colleagues, We recently uploaded version 2.1.7 of geomorph to CRAN. However, subsequent to this, we found that under certain input scenarios, some of the changes we made to underlying support code had undesirable outcomes. We have corrected these issues in version 2.1.7-1. The corrected version is found in our GitHub repository. Note that the version currently housed on the CRAN repository (2.1.7) does not contain the bug fixes. The reason is that CRAN policies do not permit frequent updates to packages, and 2.1.7 was just released last week. As a consequence, we recommend that going forward, all geomorph users should install the latest version from our Github repository. Beginning immediately, we will maintain the current version of geomorph on the ‘Stable’ branch in our GitHub repository. This version represents the most recent release to CRAN plus any necessary bug fixes. See the ReadMe file in Git for more information. To install geomorph directly from GitHub, go to R and type the following two commands: > install.packages("devtools") > devtools::install_github("EmSherratt/geomorph", ref="Stable") Thanks for all of your suggestions for improvements to geomorph. They are appreciated. Best, Dean and the geomorph team Dr. Dean C.
