I apologize for misreading Ivan's first email. I now installed from the tar.gz source file, everything worked as expected.

Thank you both for the thorough explanations.

Best,
Plamen

If I understand Ivan's email, my package should work on R 4.3.1, but
what about newer versions?

The source package (the .tar.gz file obtained using R CMD build) will
keep working fine on both R 4.3 and R 4.4.

The binary package (the .zip file obtained using R CMD INSTALL --build
and produced on Win-Builder) is only guaranteed to work with the R
version that was used to build the binary package.

This is the reason why https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=RALSA offers
a single download of the source package...

Package source:         RALSA_1.3.5.tar.gz

...but multiple, separate downloads of binary versions of the package,
for R-4.4, R-4.3, and R-4.2:

Windows binaries:       r-devel: RALSA_1.3.5.zip, r-release:
RALSA_1.3.5.zip, r-oldrel: RALSA_1.3.5.zip
