Dear Rcpp experts,
My goal was to install optimx() on a cluster ("Brutus", ETH Zurich). I
installed other packages there with no problem. On installing optimx() I
received the error message:
## ==== start ====
** preparing package for lazy loading
Error : package 'Rcpp' 0.8.2 was found, but >= 0.8.5 is required by 'minqa'
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘minqa’
* removing ‘/cluster/home/math/hofertj/library/minqa’
The downloaded packages are in
‘/tmp/RtmpauAqix/downloaded_packages’
Warning message:
In install.packages("minqa", lib = "/cluster/home/math/hofertj/library") :
installation of package 'minqa' had non-zero exit status
## ==== end ====
so my next goal was to install the latest version of Rcpp. On doing so, I
obtained:
## ==== start ====
Warning message:
In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :
package ‘Rcpp’ is not available
## ==== end ====
I found an article
[http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3391631/installing-rcpp-in-r-2-10-on-ubuntu]
in which Dirk suggested to try a different mirror. But I get the same message
with other mirrors, e.g., install.packages("Rcpp",
repos="http://cran.us.r-project.org";).
Why is package 'Rcpp' not available?
Cheers,
Marius
