I am trying to install the S3 package on R inorder to save csv output on regressions I am running. I tried to install the S3 package to link the Rstudio server to S3 but with no luck. This is the error I recieved when trying to install the aws.s3 package:

Likewise when installing the openssl package. My EC2 instance type is a t2.medium.
Here, both some OS and some R dependencies are needed before installing the aws.s3 package of cloudyr.
aws.s3 depends on three R packages: curl, httr and xml. These depend, in turn, on the libssl, libxml2 and libcurl4-openssl OS libraries.
On a fresh new EC2 instance, assuming a Ubuntu box (but of course there are the equivalent yum packages for Fedora/CentOS/RedHat distros), OS dependences have to be installed for first:
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential libssl-dev libxml2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
Then you can install the following R packages, in the specified order:
install.packages('curl')
install.packages('httr')
install.packages('xml2')
install.packages("aws.s3", repos = c("cloudyr" = "http://cloudyr.github.io/drat"))
Hope this helps
I just installed ubunutu 18.04 and I successfully install R version 3.5.1. I am having problems installing R packages such as plotly. It seems that the packages curl and httr are not available. The full error message:

I tried to solve the problem by installing libcurl4 by doing
sudo apt-get install libcurl4
but the systems then removes all the r-base dependencies.
I haven't tried to solve the problem with the httr package.
Does any one have any hint on how to solve this problem?
Just ran into the same issue, this is the solution I found:
Since just installing libcurl4-openssl-dev removes all the r-base packages what I did was
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev r-base
and afterwards
R -q -e "install.packages(c('curl'))"
and it worked.
Only caveat is that it upgrades your R version, but if you are already using the latest one then its not an issue.
You are attempting to compile from source. That sometimes has so-called build dependencies. You are missing them, and you are overlooking the (somewhat clear) error messages to that extend because you are getting swamped by multiple installations.
So first tip, so it one package at a time.
Second tip: realize that many (if not all) of these are available within Ubuntu. So just do
sudo apt install r-cran-curl
to install e.g. curl. Ditto for the others.
Third tip: There are over 3000 CRAN packages for Ubuntu at Michael's PPA. Read the top of
this README and then go this PPA (provided you want 3.5 which you do).
Fedora 36:
dnf install cmake
dnf install openssl-devel
dnf install libcurl-devel.x86_64

I also upgraded Ubuntu and also reinstalled latest version of R and updated the packages using update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE).
But, nothing worked. What can I do?
If you do not need the latest version, you can install the packaged version distributed by Ubuntu by using:
sudo apt-get install r-cran-ggplot2
I fixed this problem by typing these command:
$ sudo apt-get install r-cran-plyr
$ sudo apt-get install r-cran-reshape2
You should update your R version (r-base) to the latest.
Command line like:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install r-base
updated didn't work for me.
First uninstall R.
Then download 3.2.1 deb file from the link:
http://cran.es.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/trusty/
Install it by Ubuntu software center.
Run install.packages as regular.
apt-get tracks what repos to look for packages in /etc/apt/sources.list. The default set defined in most people's sources.list does not include CRAN mirrors. For Ubuntu users, you can add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb https://<my.favorite.cran.mirror>/bin/linux/ubuntu <linux ver>/
I use 'trusty' Ubuntu version and prefer the berkley cran mirror, so my line looks like:
deb http://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu trusty/
If you need to find out your Ubuntu version, try running:
lsb_release -a
Now apt-get can interact with a CRAN mirror for you. Enjoy!
Download the newest version of r-base (3.2.2) from [http://cran.es.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/trusty/]
use Ubuntu software Centre to open it and install.
This would update your already installed version to the latest. Then try installing the ggplot2 packgage again. It worked for me like magic.
Good luck with it!!
I wish to use the devtools package. I've run the following commands:

As per damienfrancois's suggestion, I installed libcurl4-gnutls-dev and the problem was solved.
EDIT (#dardisco)
In your shell:
apt-get -y build-dep libcurl4-gnutls-dev
apt-get -y install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
If you are using Ubuntu/Linux:
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev
In case if you are using CentOS:
Try:
sudo yum -y install libcurl libcurl-devel
I hit this issue with Ubuntu 18.04 and none of the previous answers solved it. Eventually I succeeded by installing devtools with the package manager itself:
sudo apt install r-cran-devtools
I'm on windows and had the same issue.
I used the below code :
install.packages("devtools", type = "win.binary")
Then library(devtools) worked for me.
For my Debian Jessie box, I also included:
sudo apt-get build-dep libxml2-dev
Hint: The r-tool console output is pretty verbose so I would check for any other dependencies.
Then, I finally got it:
> find_rtools()
[1] TRUE
For ubuntu users, run this command in your terminal [Tested in UBUNTU 16.04]
sudo apt-get -y install libcurl4-openssl-dev
post this install libraries the way you usually do in R using
install.packages("package name")
None of the above answers worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS using R version 3.6.1
My guess is this might have something to do with Anaconda3...
What worked for me is:
conda install -c r r-devtools
Then in R
install.packages("rlang")
install.packages("devtools")

Nowadays (ubuntu 14.04) I need both:
$ sudo apt-get -y install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
$ sudo apt-get -y install libssl-dev
Best solution to solve this. I was searching the same problem. I spent 1 day and then I got solution. Now, It is well.
Check your R version in bash terminal if you are on Ubuntu or Linux.
R --version
then use these commands
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Now check the new version of R. Use this command
sudo apt-cache showpkg r-base
Now update the R only.
sudo apt-get install r-base
Now R will be updated and the error will be removed. Make sure to cd the library path where you want to install the new package. This way in bash terminal. Try to create the R directory at home folder or it will be at the default. Locate this location for package ~/R/lib/ .
R
.libPaths("~/R/lib")
install.packages("devtools")
OR
install.packages("devtools", lib="~/R/lib")
I worked through a number of issues installing all of the following to get devtools to install on Ubuntu 18.04.1.
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
CentOS 7:
I had the libcurl and gnutls development packages installed already, but still got the "cannot load git2r.so" error when installing devtools in R. I had to "reinstall" them for it to work:
sudo yum reinstall gnutls-devel.x86_64
CentOS 7:
I tried solutions in this post
sudo yum -y install libcurl libcurl-devel
sudo yum -y install openssl-devel
but wasn't enough.
Checking R error in Console gave me the anwser. In my case it was lacking libxml-2.0 below (and Console printed an explanation with package name to different Linux versions and other possible R configs)
sudo yum -y install libxml2-devel
I found solution by seeing errors by R-Studio when I tried to install devtools package...Basically Error is because of dependence libraries not installed in linux Look at ANTICONF ERROR Below

The downloaded source packages are in
‘/tmp/Rtmpexapon/downloaded_packages’
look at bold libraries which are missing
libssl-dev
libxml2-dev
just you need to install these libraries in ubuntu terminal or
whatever operating system you are using you will find relative errors w r t
operating system see errors in details.. R-studio mentioned relative library package name against operating system
for ubuntu i did this
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
**sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev **
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
For R version 4.0.2 on Ubuntu 18.0.4, I had to install the the libgit2-dev package:
sudo apt-get install libgit2-dev
After that, worked like a charm.
Centos 6.8
this work like charm for me
install libcurl $yum -y install libcurl libcurl-devel
restart R Software $rstudio-server verify-installation
My personal experience:
I updated both R and RStudio. Then I installed devtools. As it gave me the same issues, I started installing the dependencies as appeared in the line:
`ERROR: dependencies ‘httr’, ‘RCurl’ are not available for package ‘devtools’ ` one by one.
When you install them (for example the xml2 as in my case),
install.packages("xmls2")
It says:
Configuration failed because libxml-2.0 was not found. Try installing:
* deb: libxml2-dev (Debian, Ubuntu, etc)
* rpm: libxml2-devel (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL)
* csw: libxml2_dev (Solaris)
The answer is in the response. Here I went to the command prompt and used:
sudo apt install libxml2-dev
Then I reused the command:
install.packages("xmls2")
I used a similar procedure for all other packages. Then finally,
install.packages("devtools"))
Sometimes one package may block the installation of many other packages. So please start installation from the first dependency on the list.
On Ubuntu 20.04 focal, I needed to run this first:
apt-get update
apt-get install build-essential libcurl4-gnutls-dev libxml2-dev libssl-dev libfontconfig1-dev libharfbuzz-dev libfribidi-dev libfreetype6-dev libpng-dev libtiff5-dev libjpeg-dev -y
Then installation of devtools worked.
This might seem like overkill but all were necessary for me (well, I'm not totally sure if build-essential is necessary, but it didn't hurt - I got that from here).
The way I figured which system libraries to install was by looking at the error messages carefully whenever install.packages("devtools") failed, because often the error message would tell you which system library to install, it's just that it was buried in the middle of the error message so it was hard to spot.
I wish to use the devtools package. I've run the following commands:
> install.packages("devtools", dependencies = TRUE)
....
> library(devtools)
Error in library(devtools) : there is no package called ‘devtools’
What am I doing wrong?
Edit: Here are the results of re-running the install.packages command after restarting the session.
> install.packages("devtools", dependencies = TRUE)

As per damienfrancois's suggestion, I installed libcurl4-gnutls-dev and the problem was solved.
EDIT (#dardisco)
In your shell:
apt-get -y build-dep libcurl4-gnutls-dev
apt-get -y install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
If you are using Ubuntu/Linux:
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev
In case if you are using CentOS:
Try:
sudo yum -y install libcurl libcurl-devel
I hit this issue with Ubuntu 18.04 and none of the previous answers solved it. Eventually I succeeded by installing devtools with the package manager itself:
sudo apt install r-cran-devtools
I'm on windows and had the same issue.
I used the below code :
install.packages("devtools", type = "win.binary")
Then library(devtools) worked for me.
For my Debian Jessie box, I also included:
sudo apt-get build-dep libxml2-dev
Hint: The r-tool console output is pretty verbose so I would check for any other dependencies.
Then, I finally got it:
> find_rtools()
[1] TRUE
For ubuntu users, run this command in your terminal [Tested in UBUNTU 16.04]
sudo apt-get -y install libcurl4-openssl-dev
post this install libraries the way you usually do in R using
install.packages("package name")
None of the above answers worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS using R version 3.6.1
My guess is this might have something to do with Anaconda3...
What worked for me is:
conda install -c r r-devtools
Then in R
install.packages("rlang")
install.packages("devtools")

Nowadays (ubuntu 14.04) I need both:
$ sudo apt-get -y install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
$ sudo apt-get -y install libssl-dev
Best solution to solve this. I was searching the same problem. I spent 1 day and then I got solution. Now, It is well.
Check your R version in bash terminal if you are on Ubuntu or Linux.
R --version
then use these commands
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Now check the new version of R. Use this command
sudo apt-cache showpkg r-base
Now update the R only.
sudo apt-get install r-base
Now R will be updated and the error will be removed. Make sure to cd the library path where you want to install the new package. This way in bash terminal. Try to create the R directory at home folder or it will be at the default. Locate this location for package ~/R/lib/ .
R
.libPaths("~/R/lib")
install.packages("devtools")
OR
install.packages("devtools", lib="~/R/lib")
I worked through a number of issues installing all of the following to get devtools to install on Ubuntu 18.04.1.
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
CentOS 7:
I had the libcurl and gnutls development packages installed already, but still got the "cannot load git2r.so" error when installing devtools in R. I had to "reinstall" them for it to work:
sudo yum reinstall gnutls-devel.x86_64
CentOS 7:
I tried solutions in this post
sudo yum -y install libcurl libcurl-devel
sudo yum -y install openssl-devel
but wasn't enough.
Checking R error in Console gave me the anwser. In my case it was lacking libxml-2.0 below (and Console printed an explanation with package name to different Linux versions and other possible R configs)
sudo yum -y install libxml2-devel
I found solution by seeing errors by R-Studio when I tried to install devtools package...Basically Error is because of dependence libraries not installed in linux Look at ANTICONF ERROR Below
