Not sure if this is relevant for you, but I was seeing similar behavior on Linux, and the reason turned out to be that the INSTALL script invokes R_DEFAULT_PACKAGES=NULL R --no-restore --slave which ran code in my .Rprofile, but without the usual packages attached. In my case, this was causing an error (because of not carefully written code in the profile) leading to an empty string for $lib (which seems to be happening for you too). -Deepayan ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
