We got "bit" by this when upgrading to 3.2.2. If you cannot upgrade
libcurl on your machine(s), you can put
local({
options(useHTTPS = FALSE)
})
in the Rprofile.site file, or your ~/.Rprofile. You still get a
warning, but you do get the list of http repositories.
Come to think about it: would it be an idea if R defaulted to useHTTPS =
FALSE if capabilites("libcur") is FALSE?
