  This is all a little bit surprising since tizkDevice seems
perfectly fine on CRAN: 
https://cran.rstudio.com/web/packages/tikzDevice/index.html

  What are getOption("repos") and sessionInfo() ?
  Perhaps there is some temporary binary-building delay because
R 3.2.3 just came out?

   Did you try install.packages("tikzDevice", type="source") ?

[R] installing tikzDevices for R 3.2.3

[Ranjan Maitra]

Hi,

I wanted to install tikzDevices on a installation of R (3.2.3) on a new 
machine. However, I am getting:

> install.packages('tikzDevices')

Warning message:
package ‘tikzDevices’ is not available (for R version 3.2.3) 

Is there any way out for me other than wait for the tikzDevices to be updated 
in the repos? I am on Fedora 23 with everything up to date.

Many thanks in advance for any suggestions and best wishes,
Ranjan

Please do not use http://r-forge.r-project.org/ to install tikzDevice.
We no longer update tikzDevice on R-Forge. It may be a problem of your
CRAN mirror. When in doubt, try the RStudio mirror (the chance that
Amazon CloudFront is down should be much smaller than a single metal
server somewhere):

install.packages("tikzDevice", repos="https://cran.rstudio.com;)
# make sure your version of R supports https

Sorry to answer my own question, but I found a way out (only specific to 
tikzDevices):

install.packages("tikzDevice", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org;)

It would be nice to have a general approach, especially when R updated does not 
mostly mean that packages installed under and earlier version of R stop working.

Best wiehes,
Ranjan
