Shiny App Publish Error - Error building image

Dear all,

I try to deploy my Shiny App, but I receive the error below. I feel it's related to the 'viridisLite' package and have tried to install a previous version of that package. But without results. I updated recently to R 4.0.0. My app works fine when run locally. R session info is provided below the error code.
EDIT: I've tried uploading a very basic app, like the one provided here: https://shiny.rstudio.com/articles/build.html. This also didn't work, but resulted in an error about the 'fastmap'-package instead of 'viridisLite'.

Interested to see what the cause is with this because I am also seeing a similar error:

Same problem here. Recently updated to R 4.0. It works locally. And it used to work on shinyapps before the update. Not related to ViridisLite I think but to the missing libpcre2-8.so.0 library.

My error message is:

I am also seeing similar problem after updating R to 4.0.0 .

Apparently, there is a problem of R 4.0.0 deploying shinyapps.
They are working on the issue based on this thread (Shinyapps.io can't deploy apps built with R 4.0.0).

Many thanks for the reply. I'll keep an eye out for an update on that other thread.
