Hi,

I'm a R newbie having some problems.

The special PACKAGES file seems to be missing for version 3.6:
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/macosx/el-capitan/contrib/3.6/PACKAGES

This is causing install.packages() to fail, which forces installation from 
source:

> install.packages("tidyverse")
also installing the dependencies ‘sys’, ‘ps’, ‘markdown’, ‘askpass’, 
‘processx’, ‘knitr’, ‘yaml’, ‘htmltools’, ‘base64enc’, ‘curl’, ‘mime’, 
‘openssl’, ‘callr’, ‘fs’, ‘rmarkdown’, ‘haven’, ‘httr’, ‘jsonlite’, ‘readxl’, 
‘reprex’, ‘rvest’, ‘xml2’

Warning: unable to access index for repository 
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/macosx/el-capitan/contrib/3.6:
 cannot open URL 
'https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/macosx/el-capitan/contrib/3.6/PACKAGES'
Packages which are only available in source form, and may need
 compilation of C/C++/Fortran: ‘sys’ ‘ps’ ‘markdown’ ‘askpass’
 ‘processx’ ‘yaml’ ‘htmltools’ ‘base64enc’ ‘curl’ ‘mime’ ‘openssl’
 ‘fs’ ‘haven’ ‘jsonlite’ ‘readxl’ ‘xml2’
Do you want to attempt to install these from sources? (Yes/no/cancel)

Have I made som mistake or is this a real problem?

Many thanks for any help.

Best regards,

Joel Jacobson
