Installation hangs with "testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location"

[hernanmd]

Installation hangs while testing package loading of "dyerlab/gstudio" using macOS highSierra with latest R as of 04-06-2020 (4.0.0). The expressions used for installation are :

install.packages( c("RgoogleMaps",
                    "geosphere",
                    "proto",
                    "sampling",
                    "seqinr",
                    "spacetime",
                    "spdep"), 
                  dependencies=TRUE )
install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("dyerlab/popgraph")
install_github("dyerlab/gstudio")

Last lines of installation console reports:

So can you install these packages by themselves? Which one stops and what are the error messages?

There are no error messages, installation hangs meaning R does not respond anymore and I should terminate R manually from another shell command line terminal. The line which causes the hang is:

install_github("dyerlab/gstudio")

Maybe you could output your R and package versions to check which dependencies are currently working for gstudio?

Anyway this should be reproducible with R as of 04-06-2020 (4.0.0).

To clarify, all package dependencies were installed successfully, i.e. no error messages. The hang problem only occurs during the evaluation of :

install_github("dyerlab/gstudio")

[dyerlab]

So, nothing happens? No messages, nothing?

Exactly, maybe you could let us know which package versions you're using in your working environment?

ip <- as.data.frame(installed.packages()[,c(1,3:4)])
rownames(ip) <- NULL
ip <- ip[is.na(ip$Priority),1:2,drop=FALSE]
print(ip, row.names=FALSE)

and

sessionInfo()
