I am having trouble installing the tmap R package. I am trying to install it using install.packages("tmap") and mn receiving this error:
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tmap’ in namespaceExport(ns, exports):
undefined exports: providers
Error: loading failed
Execution halted
ERROR: loading failed
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘tmap’ had non-zero exit status
I'm new to R, but have tried many of the basic bug fix approaches (Reinstalling R Studio, quitting and restarting a session, installing from a local tar.gz instead of CRAN) but none seem to work. I think the package is being installed successfully but is not being loaded. Is that correct? How would I get tmap to load correctly?
I'm using R vers 3.6.1
Cheers
The object providers is re-exported from leaflet. Please make sure that leaflet is installed correctly, and check if leaflet::providers exists.
I would also strongly recommend to upgrade R to 4.x, if possible. I recall that there were some packages in the dependency/imports tree that didn't work well for R 3.x.

I have been trying to run my first shinyapp from Rstudio.
The app loads but is undeployed. It stops running with the error:
Preparing to deploy application...DONE
Uploading bundle for application: 8122435...Warning in FUN(X[[i]], ...) :
Package 'kable' not available in repository or locally
Error: Unable to retrieve package records for the following packages: - 'kable'
then when trying to install package "kable"
Warning in install.packages :

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
Is this a temporary problem? Is there an easy way to go to an older version of R on a mac? I have tried loading kable package from other repositories aswell.
Any advice?
I would like to install the expss package but it keeps returning an error.
Looked around for other with similar problems and tried re-installing several packages but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have a suggestion how to fixed the problem?
So far i tried re-installing:
install.packages("stringr")
install.packages("knitr")
install.packages("checkmate")
install.packages("htmlwidgets")
install.packages("htmltools")
install.packages("htmlTable")
install.packages("expss")
But Rstudio keeps returning with and error :
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘expss’:
object 'mtfrm' not found whilst loading namespace 'expss'
Error: loading failed
Execution halted
ERROR: loading failed
* removing ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1/Resources/library/expss’

According to this issue, the current version of expss won't install in versions of R before 4.2. This has recently been fixed in the development version. You could try:
updating your version of R to version 4.2 (probably the simplest solution if you don't need to keep an older version of R)
installing the development version of expss from GitHub: first install the remotes package, then remotes::install_github("gdemin/expss")
install an older version of expss (remotes::install_version("expss", "0.11.1"))
I've just installed DSX Desktop with RStudio. I'm unable to load new packages, e.g. lubridate, and get the error below. If I check for package updates, I get the message "all packages are up-to-date", but the error below suggests it needs a newer version of Rcpp.

If I try remove.packages("Rcpp") or removing the packages above, I get the following message, and they remain in the Packages view.

Any advice please on how to proceed?
There seems to be a fundamental problem with RStudio. I encountered exactly the same problems you describe with the latest version (1.1.442). The problems are:
Packages viewed as out-of-date go into a loop when installing with a repeated error dialog box appearing.
The package version check refers out-of-date packages and will not install the current package versions showing on CRAN. This is due to RStudio pointing at a MRAN mirror that has old updates. This means that all packages stored there are out of date. You can see when the packages on MRAN were last updated here.
Removal of other packages (e.g. dependencies) doesn't work properly, and manual deletion of the folders doesn't solve the problem.
Inside Tools, Global options, Packages there is the ability to specify the mirror that should be used for package management. This doesn't seem to work.
I fixed my problem by going into R and performing a package update inside that. RStudio now uses the updated packages.
I have contacted RStudio about this and received the reply that they don't provide support for free versions of RStudio.
tl;dr: RStudio appears to be broken for updating packages. Use R itself for updates.
I was getting this error:
Windows 7, update.packages problem: “unable to move temporary installation”? Which I think was due to my antivirus, but not sure. MRAN version was 3.3.1 and this is what I would do to fix this error everytime I opened R-Studio and needed to install:
trace(utils:::unpackPkgZip, edit=TRUE)
# Edit line 142 - change Sys.sleep(2.5)
I was still having versioning issues with tidyverse, so looked around and decided to install the latest MRAN from Microsoft and that fixed all of my R-Studio versioning issues and install inssues. I had other issues where I was doing a work.

I am having problems trying to install the nnet package in R. The download seems to be ok, but when I load the library it states
namespace ‘nnet’ is imported by ‘car’, ‘effects’ so cannot be unloaded
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘nnet’ was built under R version 3.2.5
Error in library(nnet) : Package ‘nnet’ version 7.3.11 cannot be unloaded
I tried reading other topics which suggest using remove.packages on car and effects. However I tried this and I am still unable to install
Thanks for the help
Try unloadNamespace('effects') before trying library(nnet).
On one computer running R 2.15.2 I have installed packages from a .zip file (these packages happened to be ggplot2 and data.table, but I don't think the specific package is my issue.) Everything works fine. I took these packages to a computer without an internet connection and installed them. This other computer is running R 3.0.1. The packages seemed to install without a problem (using R's "install package(s) from local zip file" option). When I call the packages with the library(), I get the following error:
Error: package '<insert name of newly installed package here>' was build before 3.0.0: please-re-install it
Can anyone explain potential causes for this error to be thrown? Are there particular directories that the .zip packages must be in for a proper install? If R is installed on a separate partition from where the .zip packages were loaded, could this cause the error?
I'm at a loss, any pointers are greatly appreciated. This is a difficult one to reproduce; if you need any other version/system parameters to understand the problem, please don't hesitate to ask.
I found this solution while look at GitHub ggplot2 issue #796
update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
It will update all the packages that need to be reinstalled.
Running install.packages("codetools") can fix this issue for R 3.0.2, if you have the same problem like me:

I installed shiny according https://github.com/rstudio/shiny-server/wiki/Ubuntu-step-by-step-install-instructions
and got the same error at the step
sudo su - -c "R -e \"install.packages('shiny', repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')\""
Warning messages:

I tried the answer by Richard Lee by starting R
R
and got the error
Warning in install.packages("shiny") :
'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
Would you like to use a personal library instead? (y/n) n
Error in install.packages("shiny") : unable to install packages
obviously no write permission, so
sudo R
Now I tried again
install.packages("shiny")
and got a number of errors
Error : package ‘codetools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘RJSONIO’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘caTools’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘bitops’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘digest’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Error : package ‘xtable’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
Each time I got an error, I re-installed the requested package
install.packages("codetools")
install.packages("RJSONIO")
etc.
and eventually, I was able to install Rccp, httpuv, and even shiny.
Now it works!!

I am using rkward on precise
I had a similar error using rkward. Specifically this one:
'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable
I temporarily changed the permissions for this directory so that rkward could run this from its console:
update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE, ask = FALSE)
all to fix this:
Error: package '' was build before 3.0.0: please-re-install it
so that (sigh...) I could fix 'default' configuration for audio on precise. I couldn't use play() etc. in rkward.
That just needed phonon-backend-gtstreamer
I tried to install swirl on R(v3.1.0) on ubuntu 12.04LTS:
sudo R

Doing following helped me:

install.packages("swirl")
library("swirl")

I hope the same may help fix your installation issue.
Here is the work-around that I used:
I installed the latest version of R on an internet-capable computer. I then loaded the my required packages (Packages->install packages->select mirror->select package...
After R is finished installing, it displays a message of where the temporary .zip package is located. I navigated to this location, grabbed the temp package, and burnt it to a cd.
In this way, I could get the newer package build onto a computer without internet access. I would still be interested to know if there is an easy way to rebuild a package downloaded on an early R version to make it compatible with the latest version (without needed an internet connection).
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction #JoshuaUlrich
