Hello folks,

I run Linux Mint 20.3 on my computer and already installed R and RStudio.

I recently tried to download and run the "sf" package. Whilst it was possible for me to download the package, I am unable to either run the package nor to find it in my library within RStudio.

this is the result after inserting the command install.packages("sf") within the console of RStudio:

The downloaded source packages are in
‘/tmp/RtmpaPu74F/downloaded_packages’

Can someone please help me to resolve this issue?

The installation is failing because you don't have g++ installed in your system (not in R), try installing it with this command on a system terminal.

sudo apt install g++
