I'm trying to install the semPLS package on my new MacBook but I get the error:
install.packages("semPLS")
Warning in install.packages :
package 'semPLS' is not available for this version of R
A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,
see the ideas at
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages
My RStudio is Version R Studio-2022.02.1 Build 461
I've also tried using the earlier version of R 0.99.486 but still have the same problem.
I've used this quite often in the past. It is only when I tried to install the package on my new laptop, that I can't.
I tried looking for the package on cran and cannot find it there. Any advice on how I can locate and install semPLS?
You can install it using the function install_github() from package "devtools"
install devtools:
install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install semPLS:
install_github("cran/semPLS")

My first post in an early programming career - any help very welcome.
I am studying R, and using a book called R in Nutshell (O'Reilly). The book is supported by a package that was previously available on CRAN. The package on CRAN has been archived - it is still there though as nutshell_2.0.tar.gz.
I am running MacOS Catalina, R version 3.2.1.(after downgrading from 4.02 to try and solve this issue , without success), and RStudio version 1.3.1093.
When I try to install the package into R via RStudio I have this experience:
packageurl <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/nutshell/nutshell_2.0.tar.gz
install.packages(packageurl,contriburl=NULL,type="source")
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/nutshell/nutshell_2.0.tar.gz’ is not available (for R version 3.2.1)
I have a similar experience if I download the tar.gz file and try to import it directly under Tools/Install Packages.
I am able to install other packages on CRAN successfully.
Many thanks
Up front, I'm doing this on windows and not on macos, but the packages here have no compiled code so there should be few if any differences. Also, I tested on R-4.0.2; I don't think this will be a problem, because these packages appear to have been last-updated in 2012, so if they install on my 4.0.2, then they are likely to work on every version of R since then (including your 4+ year-old R-3.2).

install.packages("nutshell.bbdb_1.0.tar.gz", repos = NULL)
install.packages("nutshell_2.0.tar.gz", repos = NULL)
I tried reproducing installation from archive. I got error that dependencies of this package are not available.
ERROR: dependencies 'nutshell.bbdb', 'nutshell.audioscrobbler' are not available for package 'nutshell'

Warning in install.packages :

Did you get the same error? If yes, then did you try to install them and try again?
As per the accepted answer, the solution was to install the missing dependent packages first, then the Nutshell package.
I was then able to update to R4.02
audioscrobbler_1.0.tar.gz
nutshell.bbdb_1.0.tar.gz
nutshell_2.0.tar.gz
I am currently trying install a package from Bioconductor, I got the following message
BioC_mirror: http://bioconductor.org
Using Bioconductor version 2.14 (BiocInstaller 1.14.2), R version 3.1.0.
Installing package(s) 'minet'
package 'minet' is available as a source package but not as a binary
Warning message:
package 'minet' is not available (for R version 3.1.0)
The package is called "minet", avaliable at http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/minet.html
As #MartinMorgan points out, the package fails to build on Mavericks, and won't be available until the maintainer fixes it.
I have contacted the maintainer with a fix, so it should be resolved soon.
You can download the source code (probably tar.gz) and install it through your RStudio. This is a tutorial of what you could do:

It's so simple, but I didn't get the answer so easily.
Since updating R to 3.1 having trouble installing automap package on a mac.
> install.packages("automap")
package ‘automap’ is available as a source package but not as a binary
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘automap’ is not available (for R version 3.1.0)
Cannot workout how to install from source - can anyone help please ?
Update: Ok I got this to install eventually by downloading the source and using R CMD INSTALL at the command line. But I had to manually install gstat and spacetime this way first. When in Rstudio and using the package install tool via the menu - none of these packages come up in the list of packages on CRAN - why is this happening ? I did not have to do all this in R 2.15 that I can recall. Any ideas anyone ?
I am using R version 3.0.3.
I would like to install the package "imputation". I would like to re-run an analysis I used last year in R version 3.0.2.
I also have a new computer so I am re-installing my packages. I would like to install the package "imputation".
install.packages("imputation")
However, I received the following error:
Installing package into ‘\\oxdc/userdata/jolyon.faria/Documents/R/win-library/3.0’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘imputation’ is not available (for R version 3.0.3)
How can I work around this problem? I thought I could perhaps run two versions of R on the same computer but this may throw up its own problems.
Always check CRAN for package problems:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/imputation/
You might be able to get it working on 3.0.3 or later by installing from source via the source archive.
Or contact the maintainer and ask them if they can fix the problem that caused the removal from CRAN.
I have been trying to install the package "doby" from RStudio (ver 0.98.501 ) on ubuntu 13.04 but it keeps throwing the following warning and the package does not get installed.
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘doBy’ is not available (for R version 2.15.2)
I have followed all the instructions given here :
http://www.r-bloggers.com/installing-r-packages/
Can someone please suggest where I might be going wrong ?
If you are on Ubuntu, please see this README for Ubuntu from CRAN --- it will allow you to get to the current version of R (today 3.0.2, in a few days 3.0.3) with mininal effort.
Once you have a current R version, getting the doBy package (which depends on it) installed is a piece of cake too.
If however you prefer to stay with your version of R, you can manually fetch an older version of doBy from its CRAN archive. Download to, say, /tmp and run R CMD INSTALLby hand on it.
From http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/doBy/index.html, package doBy depends on R version 3.0 and above. Your R version is 2.15.2. You will need to install a later version of R, and then change the settings in Rstudio to target the updated version.
