I realize you aren't actively working on varImpact, but I'm trying to finish off a project that used it and I'm getting an error when I try to install. I've tried installing SuperLearner separately and same issue. Any thoughts on what to try?

Hmm the main issue is this line here: "Error: (converted from warning) package 'SuperLearner' was built under R version 4.0.5". Normally R would just note that as a warning and everything would be fine, but this system is setup to convert all warnings to errors, which is why it's stopping. I believe getOption("warn") will show the value of that setting, and options(warn = 0) should disable that.

Oh right! This happened to me once before. I had to move data to a new platform for analysis. Installing pillar separately and options(warn=-1) did the trick for me just now. Thank you!
