Installing packages from source in renv - r

I need to install a package from source in renv. I can install packages from binaries in renv no problem. I can also install packages from both source & binary outside renv no problem. I am doing this within Rstudio
The error (below) makes me think it cant find the compiler. Digging around I found a thread about this that says renv cant find Rtools and then you need to run renv:::renv_scope_rtools() to resolve this but this just gives the message FAIL and the problem remains. Can anyone help?
thanks

Unable to install a package called 'hemp' in R

I am new to learning R and i get the following error while installing the package called 'hemp'. Its a package which is used in psychometric analysis. Can anyone tell me what causes this errror?

Seems that it wouldbe a little harder to install nloptr on Windows. It require nlopt to be installed first. See this for more info: https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/pandoc/nloptr.html

RStudio learnr package error "ERROR: compilation failed for package 'backports'"

First question on StackOverflow. I will try to be clear.
I just installed
R 4.0.1 for Windows 10
RStudio (RStudio 1.3.959) for Windows 10
I tried to install learnr package, which required many other packages. The console prints toward the end:

Is it an internal issue, or a problem with the packages? Should I contact the package maintainer for 'backports', 'isoband', 'ggplot2', re-install R and/or RStudio, or something else?
It seems that you run that on Windows and want to install learnr from the source (it means that you have to compile these packages). However, some packages need additional tools to compile on Windows. These tools are provided in official RTools for Windows, so install that first and try again.
And sometimes you can install the binary versions of the packages rather than the source. Then you don't need to compile:
install.packages("learnr", type = "binary")

Installing packages in R gives the following errors

When trying to install some packages such Rcmdr or factoextra while on R in terminal (after upgrade to R 4.0.0 on Archlabs) the following errors shows up:

then followed by a bunch of

* removing ‘/usr/lib/R/library/factoextra’
following each dependencies produces the same errors with different new dependencies.
P.S: I'm a normie so please bear with me.
I had a similar error while installing 'ape'. For me it worked to reinstall the current version of the 'Rcpp' package:
install.packages('Rcpp')
Hope it works for you too !

R error: make: llvm-gcc-4.2: No such file or directory

I have RStudio 1.1.419 running on a Mac OS El Capitan. I am trying to install the dplyr package. The installation first attempts to install package utf8. The following is the text I get back:
installing source package ‘utf8’ ...
** package ‘utf8’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

removing ‘/Users/andrewdkilmer/Library/R/3.2/library/utf8’
Warning in install.packages :

Since utf8 failed to install, dplyr cannot install either. Why am I getting this 'No such file or directory' error?
Never mind, updated to R version 3.4 and it is working.

ROracle : 64bit install on MacOSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion)

I have 64bit R (R version 2.15.2 (2012-10-26) -- "Trick or Treat") on Mac OSX 10.8.5, and Oracle Instantclient Version 11.2.0.3.0 from Oracle installed. I've gotten sqlplus, as well as Perl and Python to run on these. Now I am trying to build ROracle. It needs to be built from source, so I downloaded it and have tried running:
R CMD INSTALL ROracle_1.1-10.tar.gz
However, I think it is expecting a different directory structure than what the Instant Client has given me. For instance, when I try to run that command, I get:
$ R CMD INSTALL ROracle_1.1-10.tar.gz
* installing to library ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library’
* installing *source* package ‘ROracle’ ...
** package ‘ROracle’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
configure: error: "/Applications/instantclient_11_2/lib" directory does not exist
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘ROracle’
* removing ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library/ROracle’
It is true, that I don't have a 'lib' directory in my '/Applications/instantclient_11_2' directory. I did however try to fake it out by creating one and linking to the .dylib files in the '/Applications/instantclient_11_2' directory, and I got past that error to a new one:
$ R CMD INSTALL ROracle_1.1-10.tar.gz
* installing to library ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library’
* installing *source* package ‘ROracle’ ...
** package ‘ROracle’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
configure: error: "/Applications/instantclient_11_2/rdbms/public" directory does not exist
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘ROracle’
* removing ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library/ROracle’
So it is now looking for another directory that isn't there. I don't want to keep going and guessing at the directories it is expecting and trying to back-populate it with links to files it should be expecting in those directories (I don't even know what it might be expecting here).
Is there another way to go about installing this? I'm thinking I should be able to do this based upon the fact that Perl and Python can use these drivers.
Thanks,
Matt
I think you have "ORACLE_HOME" variable set. I had the same problem and as soon as I did
export ORACLE_HOME=""
I could successfully compile ROracle.
