brms package does not load properly

[juthzi]

Hi everyone,

when trying to load the brms package with rthe ocker-stan image in Docker, I get the following output (this results in the package not being loaded, i.e. the functions I use from this package cannot be used):

library(brms) # for bayesian modelling
Loading required package: Rcpp
Registered S3 method overwritten by 'htmlwidgets':
method from
print.htmlwidget tools:rstudio
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘brms’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
there is no package called ‘xts’

Does anybody have an idea, how I might solve this? Thank you!

Best wishes,
Juliane
