Re: [R] Package installation help: Stuck at "** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading"
You can define the environment variable R_DONT_USE_TK (to any value) to avoid this hang caused by code in the tkrplot package. You do not have to have an X server running if R_DONT_USE_TK is set. This will avoid potential hangs while installing the 23 packages that depend on tkrplot. tools::package_dependencies("tkrplot", reverse=TRUE, recursive=TRUE) $tkrplot [1] "adoption" "baggingbwsel" "biplotbootGUI" [4] "cncaGUI""ConvergenceConcepts""fisheyeR" [7] "forensim" "GGEBiplotGUI" "GUIDE" [10] "idendr0""InterfaceqPCR" "multibiplotGUI" [13] "RclusTool" "RcmdrPlugin.FuzzyClust" "RcmdrPlugin.PcaRobust" [16] "rriskDistributions" "RVideoPoker""SyNet" [19] "tsgui" "uHMM" "GGEBiplots" [22] "decisionSupport""geneticae" E.g., > install.packages("forensim", type="source", INSTALL_opts="--no-byte-compile") Installing package into ‘/home/bill/R-devel/R-build/site-library’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) trying URL 'https://cloud.r-project.org/src/contrib/forensim_4.3.tar.gz' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 84232 bytes (82 KB) == downloaded 82 KB * installing *source* package ‘forensim’ ... ** package ‘forensim’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked ** using staged installation ** libs gcc -I"/home/bill/R-devel/R-build/include" -DNDEBUG -I/usr/local/include -fpic -g -c auxilary.c -o auxilary.o gcc -I"/home/bill/R-devel/R-build/include" -DNDEBUG -I/usr/local/include -fpic -g -c recursFinal.c -o recursFinal.o gcc -shared -L/usr/local/lib -o forensim.so auxilary.o recursFinal.o installing to /home/bill/R-devel/R-build/site-library/00LOCK-forensim/00new/forensim/libs ** R ** data ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location ** checking absolute paths in shared objects and dynamic libraries ** testing if installed package can be loaded from final location ** testing if installed package keeps a record of temporary installation path * DONE (forensim) The downloaded source packages are in ‘/tmp/Rtmp0jqhj9/downloaded_packages’ The relevant code is in tkrplot/src/tcltkimg.c: EXPORT(int,Rplot_Init)(interp) Tcl_Interp *interp; { /* Added to allow CRAN to disable Tk initialization */ #if !defined(Win32) && !defined(HAVE_AQUA) if (getenv("R_DONT_USE_TK") != NULL) return 0; #endif -Bill On Thu, Sep 30, 2021 at 9:35 AM Brodie, Kent wrote: > Bill-- BINGO.You have found the answer.

Re: [R] Package installation help: Stuck at "** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading"
Bill-- BINGO.You have found the answer. After some testing on one of my environments where it was always hanging, connecting to the same server with an X-Sever running on my workstation did indeed allow the package to be installed. **GOOD LORD THAT’S RIDICULOUS** But at least I know.And why it doesn’t error out without X running, who knows. After a ton more research, I ALSO discovered that there IS a timeout thing I can make use of, should I decide to continue just building things and ignoring the X-Server requirement for this (and probably some other?) packages. Before executing R and installing things, set this: export _R_INSTALL_PACKAGES_ELAPSED_TIMEOUT_=500 (value is seconds). So, the previously-hanging R CMD INSTALL inside of the install.packages call will eventually die, and then move on to the next package. This is buried in the documentation but- it’s there and I confirmed it works. My example above times out a package install at 5 minutes. While knowing the X requirement is a huge win (thanks again!), I will probably stick with just using the timeout thing for what I’m trying to accomplish. Installing EVERYTHING from cran will take forever, and more than likely my VPN connection to my data center will be disconnected (thank you internal IT department) before it finishes.They have some sort of internal “you’ve been connected too long” timer that disconnects things overnight.

Re: [R] Package installation help: Stuck at "** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading"
This is a microcosm of why installing "all CRAN" packages is a bad idea. Now extend this to the other 5% of 16000+ packages that will have unclear requirements, and when you have all those installed try to update just one of the packages because one of your users has learned of a bug in that package and the cascade starts again. Then listen as another user complains that one of the dependencies updated in the first update broke something they were working on. User libraries. Project libraries (with renv). Do anything to go as fast as possible in the opposite direction from the concept presumed by this task... "universal usability". Or go help with CRAN because you are just the kind of selfless masochist that they need to keep it going and you will need a team to keep up with it. (Obligatory thanks extended here to the CRAN team.)

Re: [R] Package installation help: Stuck at "** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading"
I just tried on an up-to-date CentOS 7 with R 4.1.1 built from source using gcc 8.3.1 (from SCL devtoolset-8; so not the default gcc 4.8.5), and it works there.

Re: [R] Package installation problem
Hi John, This is a bit off-topic for this mailing list as your issue is a linux, specifically Fedora, issue, and not R. I don't use Fedora but I did a quick Google search on fedora missing package .pc file and that came back with a lot of hits. This one in particular should be a good place to start.

I wasn't sure where the hick-up was (R or Fedora). The library the error message said couldn't be found was right where it belonged. The first thing I did was check that the *devel file was in the lib64 directory, and it was. The pc file was the only vagrant, and it was not on the system at all. I'm going to try to get sense out of Fedora about this because with "devel" files it should have been. When I reinstalled this latest time from the command line, the "pc" file was placed just as it should have been. The threads on stackoverflow are four years old, so this has been around in one form or another for a while.

As usual the r-list is quicker, and much more helpful.

Re: [R] Package installation
On 09/07/2018 6:18 AM, Steven Yen wrote: I have had trouble installing packages (e.g., car, aod) in some computers (such as computers in the student lab) but no problem in my own laptop. Installation typically goes through, but after I got out and back in R (and RStudios), the error message says "packages xxx not available". That is, earlier installation of the packages did not stay (despite the successful installation message). I went back as far as R3.0.3 and there is no problem. Does this tell anyone what may be going on? Thanks. The most common package installation problem in Windows is using different permissions to install R and the packages. Typically R is installed as administrator, but the packages are not. This means the packages can't be installed to the system library, so they get installed in a user's personal library, and the user probably may need to set .libPaths() explicitly to see them. To check for this, print .libPaths() just after installing the packages, and again when starting a new session. If the printed list of paths is different, you'll have problems.

Re: [R] package installation
There is the directory that the compressed file gets downloaded (Temp), and there is another directory where the the extracted files are "installed" ("library"). You can read all about this in the "R Administration and Installation Manual" that comes with R. The message about the download directory occurs when the library cannot be written to. I am aware of two issues that can interfere with that step on Windows: A) You have multiple copies of R open on Windows with existing packages open. Install packages with only one copy of R open. B) You ran R or the setup program with Administrator privileges at some point, and some or all of the packages in your user library (usually C:\Users\Yourname\Documents\R\win-library) have abnormal permissions. Cleaning up such a mess usually involves using Administrator privileges to completely remove C:\Users\Yourname\Documents\R\ and then starting R and installing all your packages again. -- Sent from my phone.

Re: [R] package installation
Hi If you installed through install.packages you could specify lib see help page lib character vector giving the library directories where to install the packages. Recycled as needed. If missing, defaults to the first element of .libPaths(). But I believe you hardly need to do it. You probably do not know how to handle different locations for different packages and if you scatter packages within your computer you could have problems with invoking them.

There's no simple method for getting binary packages for older R versions. Generally packages built with a minor version upgrade will still work with one version back (but I have no experience doing that with knitr). You can build older packages from the source files in the Archives if needed. Things might become more problematic in the future if you stay with OSX version 10.8, because I don't know if the dual SnowLeppard and Mavericks forks will continue to be maintained.

The log files may not have the name of the process (R), but only its process number. A good way to look at the log files in /var/log is to cause your 'Kill' problem then use 'ls -lstA' or 'ls -lstrA' in /var/log to see which ones changed recently.

Re: [R] package installation for Windows 7
On 08/07/2010 7:15 AM, Dave Bickel wrote: Neither biocLite nor the GUI menus can install packages on my system. This is probably a permissions problem. Are you running R as an administrator when you try the install? If not, you won't be able to install to the default location, but you should be able to set up your own library somewhere else, and install there. The error message should be fixed; we shouldn't give Error in if (ok) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed but I doubt if that's the source of your problem. BTW, in future Bioconductor questions should go to their list. In this case it looks as though it's not a BioC problem, but that just means there's no need to list all the biocLite.R material at the start: short simple bug reports are easier to deal with.

Re: [R] package installation for Windows 7
As far as my experience goes, there is no need whatsoever to run R as an administrator for installation of any package, including BioConductor, provided you stay away from the Program Files folder.

Correct, the problem is not limited to Bioconductor packages. On Windows 7, it's not enough to have the user be an administrator, you need to run programs specifically with administrative rights. You do this by right clicking on the icon, and choosing Run as administrator. Reason for this is that Program Files is a protected directory, and changes can only be done by programs that get administrator rights (which is not the same as running a program in an administrator account). Without those administrator rights, R cannot access the default folder for the packages, as that one is also included in the Program Files. Also changing the Rprofile.site becomes a hassle, as so many other tweaks. Actually, the only programs getting there are Microsoft related applications. If there's no strict need to place a program there, I stay away from that folder as far as possible. Vista has the same problem by the way, and obviously the same solutions.

Re: [R] package installation error
Hi, Thank you for your responses. Héctor, I had also discovered the solution you suggested. However, when I install files from a list (such as pckg.list), failure in the installation of one package in the list results in none of the packages later in the list being installed. After moving the 'problem' package up one level and deleting the empty temporary directory, the name and name attribute of the problem package must be removed from the list before loading the list and calling the function install.packages() again. With multiple failures in the list of packages, that can get tedious. Duncan, I suspect you are correct that a file within the directory for the 'failed' package may have been locked by an antivirus program or some other background process so that the package directory cannot be renamed. However, although I am able to disable the virus check of files on my home desktop and laptop (which I will do in the future), I have no control over such applications as the enterprise-wide antivirus program in my office desktop. (I have administrative rights only on my local machine.) Could the internal function normalizePath() be rewritten so that before it attempts to convert the path of a package directory to a subdirectory of the library directory it checks whether it has access to the file and pauses until it has access or for some reasonably short time? Please excuse me if I have just displayed ignorance or arrogance. I suspect, however, that there are more than a few users of R who have these problems and cannot control all the background applications on their machine. Again, thank you both.

Have you had a cionnection to CRAN and has something been downloaded? If so, to which directory? Where is R installed? Do you have set some library path other than the R default?

Re: [R] Package installation in Windows - Urgent!
Thanks for your response. However, I need more guidance. 1) I searched the archives of this list back to June 1. I found no discussion on this subject as I examined all the subject titles for the string [Ww]in. 2) I tried (what I understand) to be you suggestion. I created etc/Renviron.site: R_LIBS_SITE=C:\Program Files\R\R-2.7.2\library:C:\Program Files\R\R-2.7.2\Packages 3) As a test, downloading a package resulted in it being stored in: C:\Documents and Settings\[USER]\Local Settings\Temp\RtmpO7pcpi\downloaded_packages 4) From the documantation of Renviron: Unix versions of R have a file 'R_HOME/etc/Renviron' which is read very early in the start-up processing. It contains environment variables set by R in the configure process, and is *not used on R for Windows*. I seek your guidance, for I quickly need to deploy R and selected contributed packages on several classroom computers.

Re: [R] Package Installation produces linux/limits.h: No such file or directory error when installing the lpSolve package
Hi, I too had this same problem but it got resolved by installing two packages : 1. kernel-headers 2. kernel-devel I hope this helps in your case. Regards Sharwan Joe_K wrote: Dear Friends, I am trying to install a few packages in R and am receiving error messages. Since the error messages are different, I am posting them separately. The second error is with the installation of lpSolve. The core error message is: In file included from /usr/include/bits/posix1_lim.h:153, from /usr/include/limits.h:145, from /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.2.1/include/limits.h:122, from /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.2.1/include/syslimits.h:7, from /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.2.1/include/limits.h:11, from colamd.c:677: /usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:36:26 error: linux/limits.h: No such file or directory make: *** [colamd.o] Error 1 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'lpSolve' The first things that I tried was to figure out where linux/limits.h was. I discovered that there are seven versions of limits.h on the system and they are not identical. /usr/include/limits.h /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.13-0.3/Documentation/i2c/chips/limits.h /usr/include/c++/4.2.1/tr1/limits.h /usr/lib64/qt4/demos/qtdemo/xml/limits.h /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.13-0.3/include/linux/limits.h /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.13-0.3/include/asm-arm/limits.h /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.13-0.3/include/asm-arm26/limits.h Only one has linux immediately preceding it in the path: /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.13-0.3/include/linux/limits.h I assume that /usr/include/bits/local_lim.h is trying to use a relative path. The only line in local_lim.h with limits.h in it is: #include linux/limits.h So, I tried modifying the line to read: #include /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.13-0.3/include/linux/limits.h That did not work, so I changed it back again. I guess my theory about it looking for a relative path was wrong. Since then, I have been Googling the issue all weekend and have found similar errors, but not exactly the same. Some are suggesting changing kernel headers and other files. Since the context of these other posts are dissimilar, I figured it best not to mess with kernel headers or some of the other radical solutions offered. There was one suggestion in a post to install glibc-headers, however, I cannot seem to find that for Suse 10.3. Is it something included in another package? Is it something that is now obsolete? CAN ANYONE HELP ME DEBUG THIS?
