Hello,
I am trying to install the tidycensus package. I get an error. When I run:
install.packages("tidycensus")
install.packages("tidycensus", dependencies = TRUE)
The output:
Installing package into ‘C:/USER/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
also installing the dependency ‘tigris’
There are binary versions available but the source versions
are later:
binary source needs_compilation
tigris 1.0 1.5 FALSE
tidycensus 0.11.4 1.1 FALSE
installing the source packages ‘tigris’, ‘tidycensus’
