General
1

Hello, I need to download a package named esquisser but I when i try I only got warning messages!

Installing package into ‘/home/agnesforsgren/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.2’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘esquisser’ is not available for this version of R

I have the latest version of R. I have try diffrent ways but I do not understand where the error is. Can someone help me?

2

I suspect the package is actually called esquisse not esquisser

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/esquisse/vignettes/get-started.html

3

Thanks so much, now when I try to download the package I got this message:

The downloaded source packages are in
‘/tmp/RtmpWPhUdx/downloaded_packages’

What is next step to do?

4

That means the package is already installed, now you just need to load it in order to use it in your current R session

library(esquisse)
5

when I do it I get this message:

Error in library(esquisse) : there is no package called ‘esquisse’

6

Can you post the complete console output you get by running this command?

install.packages("esquisse")

You are missing a system dependency and the console output is already telling you how solve the problem.

Thank you for your help!!

If you are on Ubuntu, Dirk Eddelbuettel's r2u pre-compiled binaries will minimize package installation and maintenance woes. All download and no compile. It's not quite dead simple to set up and there is some flailing around, but once you have the hang of it, it's catnip.

How does I install these:

  • deb: libcurl4-openssl-dev (Debian, Ubuntu, etc)
  • rpm: libcurl-devel (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL)
  • csw: libcurl_dev (Solaris)??

The exact command depends on the Linux distribution you are using. If it is a Debian based distribution then run this command on a system terminal

sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev
15

Now it is working, thank you!!!
