Note: dbplyr version 2.0.0 is installed. In my computer unitizer version 1.4.11 is installed. install.packages() fails with unitizer version 1.4.12

@hubabe

Error in .requirePackage(package) : 
  unable to find required package ‘dbplyr’

Can you try to install dbplyr manually and post the error message you get?

[hubabe]

Should I uninstall dbplyr 2.0.0 first?

[andresrcs]

If it is installed on a different library path, yes, otherwise, is up to you, I'm more interested in the additional information that the error message can provide.

That is weird, it installs without issues, can you try restarting your R session and trying to install unitizer again?

I tried to install unitizer and this is the result:

Yesterday I was sanctioned (flagged) by the community and they treated my messages as spam without any explanation just because something named AKISMET considered it so.
Today, despite my disqualification, I downloaded version 1.4.12 from: https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/all/r-cran-unitizer/download and installed it on my computer with gdebi.
In the attached graphic you can see the RStudio PACKAGES section and see the two packages installed, but when I tell RStudio or R in the command console to install unitizer 1.4.12, it tells me that there are errors and that it cannot install it .
Is my message spam?

To avoid autoflaging of your posts, post console output as formatted code, here is how to do it

FAQ: How to format your code

Formatting Code: the Basics All code or console output you include in your posts should be formatted properly. Luckily, this is very easy to do! Just use the code formatting button at the top of the post editing box: [image] Select some code Click the </> button! The code formatting button automatically adds special Markdown formatting symbols to whatever you selected. If you check the preview pane to the right of your post, you'll see that the forum software now outputs nicely formatted code . [04] The code formatting button is pretty smart! It can tell the difference between snippets of code that are part of a sentence and blocks of code that stand alone. …

About your issue, I'm afraid you are not providing any relevant information, please post the actual error message you get (as formatted code), also, why do you have both versions installed? Make sure to uninstall any previous version from your other library paths (you can get them by running .libPaths()).

**Initial steps:**

1) Uninstall unitizer, command console, call as root user
2) R reports that unitizer is not installed
3) The list of installed packages is requested and with grep the names that contain unitizer are obtained
4) The list of installed packages reports two instances where the unitizer is shown as installed
5) Image that summarizes the above

**Steps with RStudio**

1) Attempting to uninstall unitizer
2) The list of installed packages is built
3) From the above list, it is checked with grep if unitizer is installed
4) Like the call to R from the command console, unitizer appears as installed
5) See the following image of RStudio that shows on the right how unitizer is not installed, and on the left the output of the RStudio Console

**Reinstalling unitizer from command console called as normal user:**
