Error: package 'BayesFactor' required by 'yarrr' could not be found

[larsheemskerk]

Hello, I want to run the Yarrr package in Rstudio but I keep on receiving the following error message:

Error: package 'BayesFactor' required by 'yarrr' could not be found In addition: Warning message: package 'yarrr' was built under R version 3.5.0

I installed the BayesFactor package serveral times via package archive and the CRAN repository without succes. Could someone advice how to proceed?

Darn, 99.999% of the time installing BayesFactor directly does the trick. Are you able to load BayesFactor after installing it? Did you restart RStudio?

If you're still having issues, can you send me a screenshot of the exact errors you get when installing / loading yarrr?

I am having this issue too:

I just want to play with the diamonds lm()'s! Thanks for all your hard work.

Easy fix: install BayesFactor manually with install.packages('BayesFactor'), then reinstall yarrr. That should fix it!

I've seen this issue often on PCs not sure why it occurs though...

I am having what appears to be a similar issue today. The last part of the messages from the compile process:

/usr/lib/R/site-library/RcppEigen/include/Eigen/src/Core/DenseCoeffsBase.h:55:30: warning: ignoring attributes on template argument ‘Eigen::internal::packet_traits<int>::type’ {aka ‘__m128i’} [-Wignored-attributes]

Warning in install.packages :

I confirmed that my rcppeigen package is up to date, and I have also tried "install.packages("BayesFactor")" from the console.

I found that using pak::pak("yarrr") did successfully install yarr and all the dependencies. It took about 47 minutes with my setup. I don't know why it's successful and the base R function was not.
