I'm unable to install certain source packages in R. Until now I've just made do with using binary, however the in trying to use rmarkdown this workaround isn't possible (RMarkdown requires updated version to work).
I don't understand what this issue is. I've installed the correct version of RTools (3.5) for the R (3.6.3) that I'm using, but that alone hasn't fixed it.
Am using Windows 10.
Would really appreciate pointing in the right direction. The error message looks like this (for all packages that fail):

First we have to install r version and RStudio then install recommend packages.

I am having some trouble installing packages on R, and I'm not sure what to do. The errors are as follows:

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
After updating the R version from 3.5 to 4.0 I am facing installation issues with devtools package.
Having Rtools 4.0 and RStudio-1.2.5042 downloaded and installed.
when I try to install devtools
install.packages("devtools")
I get this message:

If I try to check the packages in the installation directory

How can I solve this?
I am trying to install the forecast package in R via: install.packages('forecast'), nevertheless this is not working.
The result:
There is a binary version available but the source version is later:
binary source needs_compilation
forecast 8.2 8.3 TRUE
Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation?
Not sure what to answer here, 'yes' or 'no'. If I answer 'no', the result is:

If I type 'yes' some additional items are installed and I receive one error note:
Warning in install.packages :

Unfortunately I cannot proceed with the necessary functions that this package provides. Thanks for any suggestions.
I had the same problems, changing primary CRAN repository works for me
Tools > Global Options > Packages
If I open up an R console and send the command
update.packages(repos = "https://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/",ask=FALSE,checkBuilt=TRUE)`
It starts updating a small collection of packages, a somewhat representative output might include

Unfortunately, if I turn around and run this again, I get the same report. This strikes me as not quite right, as these packages (with the exception of the ones explicitly tagged as "Will not be updated") should have been updated. Why are they still out of date?
The example above is small because I'm starting from a relatively new install, but as the months go by, this list will get longer and longer and it bogs down my script.
Hopefully this will be easily reproducible.
I'm having problems installing the package car in R.
There are previous posts on the topic, including this one and this other one.
I have followed the suggestions I've come across so far without success. I am using R Version 3.2.2. and RStudio.
This is the message I get:
install.packages("car")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/.../Documents/R/win-library/3.2’

If I check I get,

you could try ‘??car’
I tried installing it from R with Install packages from local zip drives, and looking for the zip in C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\Rtmpc3xr5i\downloaded_packages, but this is the result:
library(car)
Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) :

In addition: Warning message:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘car’
I did try installing SparseM even before posting the OP without success:

Follow up:
After a comment regarding R version 3.2.3 I thought it would be an easy fix to just download this version, install, and erase 3.2.2. The problem then is that RStudio did not seem to work. I un-installed and re-installed R-studio, and now I get this when opening R studio:
Without knowing what version of the car package you're using, it's hard to know exactly what the source of the problem is. It seems likely, however, that you haven't installed the proper version of the pbkrtest, on which the Rcmdr package depends.
Is there a compelling reason not to upgrade everything to their current versions, including R, all packages, and RStudio?
Best,
John
