Where should I search for the installed R packages by conda? - r

I am installing r packages using conda. It works fine when I use this example format
"conda install -c r r-scales --name condaenv"
But when I want to define installtion directory using --prefix
conda install -c r r-scales --prefix=/opt/local
the package "scale" is installed but I cannot find it in the directory I expect to be
"/opt/local/lib/R/library"
. It is weird because when I try to reinstall this package it says
All requested packages already installed.
that means this package is already installed in defined path. BUT WHERE?
I also try using
conda list
But I cannot find "scales" among installed packages.
UPDATE:
I also tried to use install.packages("scales), but I ran into this error
/opt/anaconda/bin/x86_64-conda_cos6-linux-gnu-ld: cannot find -lm
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: ***

Cannot install nloptr (R 4.0.3, Ubuntu 20.04)

I tried to install nloptr on R 4.0.3, however I get this error:

Warning in install.packages :

Can someone point me to a solution?
Thanks in advance.
The latest (2.6.2) package of libnlopt-dev is broken in Ubuntu 20, for some reason it is compiled into a static library (.so shared object is missing)
I faced the similar problem a couple of days ago. The quick fix is to download NLOPT fron Github and compile it yourself
https://nlopt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/NLopt_Installation/
At least, it worked for me.
I had a slightly related issue with this package, apt install cmake which was suggested by cli itself fixed the issue.
I also failed to install the nloptr but had another error.
g++: error: nlopt/lib/libnlopt.a: No such file or directory
I followed others suggestion to install the nlopt first as described in nlopt website. The installation process was
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
But I found the cmake version which nlopt needed should be higher than 3. The default cmake in my computer was version 2.8.12.2 which was /usr/bin/cmake. So I installed cmake version 3.24.2 in my home directory and compiled the nlopt using absolute path of cmake as ~/software/install/cmake-3.24.2-linux-x86_64/bin/cmake ... And I used sudo to install the nlopt in the computer. I could see the libnlopt.so libnlopt.so.0 libnlopt.so.0.11.1 files in /usr/local/lib64
When I went back to install the nloptr in R. It still failed. I found the cmake failure in the output information of installation. So I add the cmake(version 3.24.2) to my PATH in .bashrc file and then I installed the nloptr successfully.

R package installation - R CMD check throws ERROR: Installation Failed

I'm having trouble getting a package that I have written to install (on a Windows 10 machine).

I've updated to the latest version of R (3.4.0), RTools (34) and Cygwin, and checked that my PATH environment variable contains (in order) C:\Rtools\bin; C:\Rtools\mingw_32\bin; C:\Program Files\R\R-3.4.0\bin; C:\Program Files\R\R-3.4.0\bin\x64.
I've tried including and excluding C:\cygwin64\bin and C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin from the path, and have tried installations of Rtools with and without the Cygwin dlls, and have tried uninstalling Cygwin completely.

gcc error when installing Statnet package

I tried updating XCode/Command Line Tools. Also tried not installing dependencies. I have been able to install other packages, such as ergm and sna.
It looks like the install is looking for the GCC folder and not finding it.
whereis gcc
reveals that my gcc is in /usr/bin/gcc
It looks like the install is looking for it in /usr/local/lib/gcc/
Is there a way to fix this?
This is a compilation error that you only get if you are trying to install packages from source, or when a package requires a library to be compiled from source. Normally, if you don’t use the latest version of R, you can install statnet from binary and thus R won’t have to compile the source package.
The version you are mentioning at the beginning of your message (0.99.441) is the version of your R-Studio, and not R. The version of your R is 3.2.x (Hence its address in the Library folder: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources…). Before trying to fix the compilation error you may want to try to roll back your R to a version like 3.1.2 or 3.1.3 on which you can probably download and install statnet in binary format.
For the compiler, my guess is that even if you fix the address of your gcc with a symlink, you will still get an error about gfortran or the version of gcc. Once I solved this issue by installing R and the right version of gcc through Homebrew, but right now I don’t have the possibility to try the solution and tell you exactly how.
My experience (on Yosemite) is that if you use 3.1.2 or 3.1.3, even if there is need for compilation, the error with gcc won’t occur.
sudo mkdir /usr/bin/lib && sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/lib/gcc
Creates a new directory in /usr/bin called `lib' and creates a symbolic link to gcc in that new directory.
If that doesn't fix the error, you can undo it with:
sudo rm -i /usr/bin/lib/gcc && sudo rm -id /usr/bin/lib

GLPK: No such file or directory error when trying to install R package

I am trying to install sparkTable in R 3.1.0 which depends on Rglpk. I manually installed GPLK on the system and added the libs folder to LD_LIBRARY_PATH before going into R for the install.packages("sparkTable") procedure. I get this error during the installation process. Any ideas?
* installing *source* package ‘Rglpk’ ...

sudo apt-get install libglpk-dev
did the trick for me.
I had this problem and took a good bit of digging in the package to understand what was happening. If Rgplk can't compile its test program when installing, it does something weird, including this bizarre cd to nowhere. Assuming glpk-devel is installed, the reason it can't compile the test program is that it can't find the gplk header as it is in a non-standard directory.
Just set the environment variable CPATH=/usr/include/glpk
and the test program will compile, allowing the package install to proceed normally.
I had this problem too. The following steps solved this issue for me. My current setup:
OS: Scientifc Linux version 6.5 (on a High Performance Cluster Server)
local user, no root access.
GLPK was not installed
Install GLPK in a local directory:
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/glpk-4.54.tar.gz
tar xfzv glpk-4.54.tar.gz
mkdir GLPK
cd glpk-4.54
./configure --prefix=/home/<username>/GLPK
make
make install
Install Rglpk (0.6-3):
cd ~
wget http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Rglpk_0.6-3.tar.gz
export LIBRARY_PATH=/home/<username>/GLPK/lib
R CMD INSTALL Rglpk_0.6-3.tar.gz
I landed on this page, because I could not update igraph under Windows 10/11, since igraph also requires glpk as per OP. Specifically:
igraph_glpk_support.h:36:10: fatal error: glpk.h: No such file or
directory #include <glpk.h>
^~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make: *** [C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-4.1.1/etc/x64/Makeconf:238: feedback_arc_set.o] Error

in install.packages : installation of package ‘igraph’ had non-zero
exit status
I am under Windows 11 (but would be same for Windows 10).
Simple resolution is suggested here:
start Rtools Bash (found in all apps, Rtools 4.0 in the Windows menu)
Run pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-glpk and confirm with yes (y)
Run pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libxml2 and confirm with yes (y)
Updating igraph in Rstudio now leads to a clean
DONE (igraph)
(there is no need to install anything, add any path, etc... just the above 4 steps)
In ubuntu 14.04, all above doesn't work. the following however works, without the need of installing libglpk-dev using apt-get.
download the glpk package from gnu and extract it:
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/glpk-4.55.tar.gz
tar xvf glpk-4.55.tar.gz
make a GLPK directory in your local path:
mkdir ~/GLPK
configure within glpk:
cd glpk-4.55
./configure --prefix=$HOME/GLPK
cd ..
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/GLPK/lib
export LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/GLPK/lib
export CPATH=$HOME/GLPK/include
download the Rglpk package from cran and extract it:
wget http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Rglpk_0.6-0.tar.gz
tar xvf Rglpk_0.6_0.tar.gz
move the glpk directory into Rglpk/src and rename it to GLPK:
mv glpk-4.55 Rglpk/src/GLPK
now you can install:
R CMD INSTALL Rglpk
now a bit of explanation of what's going on. The "src/Makevars.in" file in the Rglpk package contains a line of code to enter a non-existing directory 'GLPK' within the src/ folder:
(line 11 of Makevars.in)
GLPK.ts:
#(cd GLPK && make)
touch $#
this is where the problem arises. obviously the code is trying to build glpk within that directory for some unknown reasons. and the solution above is achieved simply by moving the downloaded (and configured) glpk directory there...
If you're on a Debian-based Linux distribution, run this to install GLTK:
sudo apt install libglpk-dev
If you're on MacOS, run this to install GLTK:
brew install gltk
Finally, install the R library:
install.packages("Rglpk")
On Centos, have sudo rights. None of the above worked, but had to install GLPK in /usr/local as suggested in this SO answer. Been trying to install it for about 3 hours fml
You must install glpk dependency first.
On macOS (via homebrew):
brew install glpk
or in RStudio (via homebrew):
system("brew install glpk")
It worked for me when I combined the answers from Simón Ramírez Amaya and shadowleaves:
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/glpk-4.54.tar.gz
tar xfzv glpk-4.54.tar.gz
mkdir GLPK
cd glpk-4.54
./configure --prefix=$HOME/GLPK
make
make install
cd ..
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/GLPK/lib
export LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/GLPK/lib
export CPATH=$HOME/GLPK/include
wget https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Rglpk_0.6-4.tar.gz
R CMD INSTALL Rglpk_0.6-4.tar.gz
To load the library
dyn.load(file.path(Sys.getenv("HOME"), "GLPK", "lib", "libglpk.so"))
library(Rglpk)
The answer of Zhiying Cui is right, however, if your script has some special codes, such as foreach for parallel computing, it may raise an error.
A better way is as fellow
If your os is Centos, try
yum install glpk-devel
then just go to R or Rstudio server and
install.packages("Rglpk")

how to install R packages "RNetCDF" and "ncdf" on Ubuntu?

I would like to use the R packages RNetCDF and ncdf in Ubuntu.
When I try install.packages('RNetCDF') or install.packages('ncdf'), I get similar errors:
...
ncdf.c:3:20: fatal error: netcdf.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [ncdf.o] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘ncdf’
...
Warning message:
In install.packages("ncdf") :
installation of package ‘ncdf’ had non-zero exit status
The packages libnetcdf6 and netcdf-bin from the Ubuntu repository are installed. Do I need to do something else?
You need to install the -dev of those packages to get the headers that are required to compile the package. In this case, you need libnetcdf-dev, udunits-bin and libudunits2-dev
In my case, libudunits2-dev package was needed.
sudo apt-get install libudunits2-dev
Since I installed NetCDF from source, I had to manually specify the locations of lib and include folders
install.packages("/home/user/Downloads/RNetCDF_1.6.1-2.tar.gz",
repos = NULL,
type="source",
dependencies=FALSE,
configure.args="--with-netcdf-include=/usr/local/netcdf-4.2.1-build/include --with-netcdf-lib=/usr/local/netcdf-4.2.1-build/lib")
Just to clarify, since your initial issue is in R, and the fix is applied outside of R. I initially was trying to do
install.packages("libnetcdf-dev"), which didn't work.
instead, from outside of R: sudo apt-get install libnetcdf-dev
That fixed it for me.
In Ubuntu 20.04 LTS one can install the ncdf4 package (which supersedes ncdf), including all dependencies, with the bash command sudo apt install r-cran-ncdf4. Similarly for RNetCDF you can use sudo apt install r-cran-rnetcdf.
