Recently, I used R on Linux, and failed to download some packages with some ERROR messages by "install.packages" and "BiocManager::install" in R. Like this:

ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘rgeos’
* removing ‘/home/shpc_100710/miniconda3/envs/R4.0.5/lib/R/library/rgeos’

All I think I should do is to install.packages("rgeos"). Of cause, there was no use. But when I turn to Linux environment and downloaded the packages by "conda install", the package was successfully downloaded and library.

So what are the differences in download of r-packages between "conda install" and "install.packages"? Or Why it's successful in Linux rather than R?

Hope for your reply, thanks.(^_^)

  • You've provided no OS/release/product details; and only mention Linux. This is a Ubuntu Q&A site and not SE Unix & Linux. Why ask here? – guiverc Jul 18 '22 at 03:13
  • Thank you for your question, you are right. I think I should turn to Linux forum. And I got the same trouble when I use differnet OS of ubuntu, so I didn't give the details of OS. I will fill in the details and then ask on Linux forum. Thanks. – Wang Mengfei Jul 18 '22 at 03:45
