Error message when package not available

Error message when package not available

Closed this issue 4 years ago · 3 comments

Only a minor issues but would it be possible to handle the error message when a package is not available from both copr and CRAN? Currently you get a dbus error rather than an informative message (e.g. package not available)

install.packages("packagedoesnotexist")
Install system packages...

Error in install.packages : dbus: Call failed: wrapper() missing 1 required positional argument: 'pid'

I'll wait a little bit to send a new release to CRAN, but the pre-release is now built on Copr.
