Greetings -

I seem to have gotten tripped up trying to install the tidyverse package in R. The process stops at 'backports', which is a dependency of course that I am not familiar with. I have copied the output below. Any help in getting this to install is appreciated. I've used these packages before and never had any type of issue.

Thanks in advance!

This has to do with a project I'm writing using "renv".....

Sorry for the fuss. Please disregard.
