You'll have to show us the output of `sessioninfo::session_info("revdepcheck")` and also the exact command that you were running.

What repositories do you use? ``` getOption("repos") ``` Do you actually have >= 13 processors? Did you run this from RStudio? Also, how much memory does your machine have?

Yeah, the whole thing finished in 8 minutes for me with no failures at all, so maybe you don't have enough CPUs or memory to run 13 checks in parallel?

Try naming that repo `CRAN`. AFAIR revdepcheck adds a `CRAN` repo if there is none, and it is possible that it is compiling packages from source instead of using RSPM....

So how does an installation failure look like? If you call ``` revdepcheck::revdep_details(, "") ``` is there any output? What is the actual output of the `revdep_check()` command?

Yes, I think we could probably be more explicit about path separators on Windows.

Yes, we should definitely keep the installation logs for the packages that failed to install, and put them in the DB.

Yes, agreed, and I'll fix this soon.
