i Building glue 1.6.2
Error: Could not find tools necessary to compile a package
Call `pkgbuild::check_build_tools(debug = TRUE)` to diagnose the problem.
Type .Last.error.trace to see where the error occurred
On Windows, would it be possible for pak to check (and maybe prompt) the user to install Rtools prior to attempting to build packages from sources which will require compilation?
In addition, the error message is a bit misleading since pkgbuild isn't actually installed in the user library (it's bundled with pak) so running this won't actually work directly:
Call `pkgbuild::check_build_tools(debug = TRUE)` to diagnose the problem.
The issue is that it is not always easy to decide if a compiler is needed or not. Not all source packages need a compiler.
In practice all downloaded packages are cached, so it you install Rtools after the error, and then restart the installation, you don't lose much time.
Is there some opportunity to read the NeedsCompilation field from each package's DESCRIPTION file in the solve phase? (not sure if pak has access to those that early)
Most of the time, yes. But e.g. for packages on GH, no, unless the maintainer manually adds it.
For packages on GitHub, you could probably infer whether compilation is required via some call to the GitHub API (e.g. to see if there's a src folder).
All that said I realize this is low priority.
