install issue

Hi,

I would like to install the package "seqminer" in HPC where I did not have the manager permisson. The R version is 3.2.5 in HPC. When I installed it, it showed the following error message. Could you help me to solve this issue? Thank you.

install.packages("seqminer", lib = "..../library", repos = "http://cran.us.r-project.org") Error in readRDS(file) : cannot read workspace version 3 written by R 3.6.0; need R 3.5.0 or newer Error in readRDS(file) : cannot read workspace version 3 written by R 3.6.0; need R 3.5.0 or newer Error in readRDS(file) : cannot read workspace version 3 written by R 3.6.0; need R 3.5.0 or newer Error in readRDS(file) : cannot read workspace version 3 written by R 3.6.0; need R 3.5.0 or newer trying URL 'http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/seqminer_8.0.tar.gz' Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 4055251 bytes (3.9 MB) ================================================== downloaded 3.9 MB

I'm experiencing similar issues with R-3.3.0...

if you type

/path/to/R CMD config

it appears that the relevant variables used to be known as:

CXX1X compiler command for C++11 code CXX1XSTD flag used with CXX1X to enable C++11 support CXX1XFLAGS further compiler flags for CXX1X CXX1XPICFLAGS special flags for compiling C++11 code to be included in a shared library

So, it appears you should either update your version of R to one which uses the CXX11 variables, or modify the configure script in this package's source code to point at CXX1X instead of CXX11, etc.

Here's an example patch:
