Hm, a source install to r-devel gave me Peter-Dalgaards-MacBook-Air:BUILD pd$ ls -l library/pkgconfig/R/pkgconfig.rdb -rw-r--r-- 1 pd staff 4515 Oct 31 19:15 library/pkgconfig/R/pkgconfig.rdb Peter-Dalgaards-MacBook-Air:BUILD pd$ ls -l library/pkgconfig/help/pkgconfig.rdb -rw-r--r-- 1 pd staff 5748 Oct 31 19:15 library/pkgconfig/help/pkgconfig.rdb
and an install to R_3.4.1 (yes, 4...) said $ ls -l /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.4/Resources/library/pkgconfig/*/pkgconfig.rdb -rw-r--r-- 1 pd admin 2432 Aug 17 11:36 /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.4/Resources/library/pkgconfig/R/pkgconfig.rdb -rw-r--r-- 1 pd admin 5412 Aug 17 11:36 /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.4/Resources/library/pkgconfig/help/pkgconfig.rdb I.e., it looks like it is the larger of your file sizes that is anomalous(?). Did you try a straight install with install.packages("pkgconfig")? And, BTW, which system are you using? -pd > On 31 Oct 2018, at 08:22 , Patrick Connolly <p_conno...@slingshot.co.nz> > wrote: > > > I got this message while using a dplyr mutate call: > > Error in get0(oNam, envir = ns) : > lazy-load database > '/home/hrapgc/local/R-3.5.1/library/pkgconfig/R/pkgconfig.rdb' is corrupt > > I had only just installed R-3.5.1 and updated the packages (using the > function update.packages with the checkBuild parameter to TRUE) in the > library I use with that version.
