I use Rstudio 1.3 on mac.

Thanks for your help.

PS : I can't insert the all installation log otherwise the post is too long, if needed i can include a part.

You should update R from the CRAN site. That is likely to solve the problem along with re-installing all the dependencies and it will avoid accumulating problems as R3.3 lags even further with time.

Hi,
thank you for your answer, I updated Rstudio but not R itself.

With R4.0 no problem with the package installation.

Have a good day.
