install gllvm from cran

[Douglas_Yu]

Hello,

I tried to install gllvm, but i got an error:

pak::pkg_install("gllvm")

g++:fatal error: lled signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated.

should I expect this for posit.cloud, even though gllvm is a CRAN package?

@Douglas_Yu Hi, I find the package in CRAN. You could by the code install.packages("gllvm") to install that package. The package is you want?

CRAN - Package gllvm (r-project.org)

i tried that also, but gllvm requires compilation on posit.cloud, and i compilation failed:

g++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated.
make: *** [/opt/R/4.2.2/lib/R/etc/Makeconf:178: gllvm.o] Error 1

There are no binaries available for this package on the Posit Package Manager and very likely you are running out of RAM while compiling. If you have a paid Posit Cloud account you can increase the memory limit for your project.

You can try reporting the missing binary on this forum using this tag #r-admin:packagemanager as per this related topic

Installing rstan on Posit cloud does not work

Thanks for the report. This was an issue on the Posit Package Manager side, as our rstan binary builds were failing from running out of memory. The latest version of rstan seems to have a significantly higher memory requirement for compilation than before. We're accounting for that now, and rstan should be installable in both Cloud and from Package Manager, with dependent packages like rstanarm coming soon. If you come across any other missing binary packages in the future, you can report them on Community using the package-manager tag.

Thanks for the heads up. gllvm had likely been affected by some recent issues and should now be available as binary from Posit Package Manager, and also Cloud.
