I get the same if I erase the repo, re-clone, first install.packages("packrat"), then starting R inside your package.

[tlamadon]

eheh, interesting. Did you give the docker a try?

[tlamadon]

perhaps this is simply a packrat issue. See rstudio/packrat#524

basically says to try rm -rf packrat/src packrat/lib*

[floswald]

docker works! (of course.)

this worked for a few steps: rstudio/packrat#524 (comment)

source("packrat/init.R") failed again. but packrat::restore() runs. however:

> packrat::restore()

The following packages were not installed by packrat and will be ignored:
            _        
    packrat   0.4.9-2

If you would like to overwrite them, call restore again with
overwrite.dirty = TRUE.

I think I'll stop here and stick to docker.

[floswald]

by the way, I found pretty straight forward on my office computer to just install the 2 non-CRAN packages manually first (RcppSimpleTensor and LatexTables), then straight devtools::install().

[tlamadon]

ah ok! good. I am thinking about adding all the package sources to the git folder. But again, the docker is here to not have to deal with any of these issues!

[brakka]

For those people who can not use docker, for one reason or another, the way to deal with the packrat issue (at least on a windows system - on a mac it works) is to install all the packages in their correct version manually.

[tlamadon]

that is not ideal of course. packrat has not worked as well as I hoped for. I would recommend using docker.

[brakka]

Yes, docker works, but it also has flaws. When I try to run the dynamic bootstrap R crashes every time.
