This is in the Preview version, 1.2.1194. But I've noticed it in many previous versions. It seems like, when it pauses to ask me whether to compile some packages, it doesn't wait for the answer and then gets confused. Anyone else seen this? Is it a bug, or something in my config maybe?
install.packages(c("animation", "arules", "arulesViz", "backports", "bookdown", "brms", "broom", "callr", "CDM", "commonmark", "ddalpha", "effects", "emmeans", "FNN", "generics", "ggimage", "httr", "hunspell", "knitr", "labelled", "lava", "libcoin", "markdown", "MESS", "meta", "pdftools", "pillar", "prediction", "processx", "questionr", "RcppEigen", "readODS", "readr", "rio", "rmarkdown", "rpart.plot", "rsconnect", "rvcheck", "sfsmisc", "sm", "spData", "spelling", "StanHeaders", "survival", "TAM", "tweenr", "units", "visdat", "vtreat", "wrapr"))

Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation? (Yes/no/cancel) install.packages(c("mgcv", "survival"), lib="/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library")
