build failing with "Warning: dependency 'data.table' is not available"
Closed this issue · 4 comments
I have been facing an issue with getting my AppVeyor build to succeed and I am not sure what to do, so I am raising this issue here. I have two packages, both of which are succeeding with TravisCI builds, but failing on AppVeyor for a common reason-
For ggstatsplot (https://ci.appveyor.com/project/IndrajeetPatil/ggstatsplot/build/artifacts)
* installing *source* package 'ggstatsplot' ...
** R
** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading
Error in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]) :
there is no package called 'data.table'
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package 'ggstatsplot'
* removing 'C:/projects/ggstatsplot/ggstatsplot.Rcheck/ggstatsplot'
In R CMD INSTALL
The same error is also observed for my other package groupedstats (https://ci.appveyor.com/project/IndrajeetPatil/groupedstats/build/artifacts).
I am not sure why I'm getting this error because data.table is clearly there on CRAN and seems to be working with the current version of R (https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_data.table.html).
Any thoughts on what's going on?
I'm getting a similar error at https://ci.appveyor.com/project/rorynolan/exampletestr. On line 200, I have
Skipping 1 packages not available: desc
which eventually causes the check to fail.
@rorynolan Turns out the error I am getting has nothing to do with AppVeyor: Rdatatable/data.table#2794 (comment)
I think similar issue exists for desc with the new release of R (3.5):
https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_desc.html
Thanks a lot for addressing my comment too @IndrajeetPatil :-)
Should work better now with the new default PKGTYPE=win.binary. Please open a new issue if necessary.
