You can define the environment variable R_DONT_USE_TK (to any value) to
avoid this hang caused by code in the tkrplot package. You do not have to
have an X server running if R_DONT_USE_TK is set. This will avoid
potential hangs while installing the 23 packages that depend on tkrplot.

I tried this a second time, but with --no-byte-compile, and it hung with a
slightly different traceback

Bill-- BINGO.You have found the answer. After some testing on one of
my environments where it was always hanging, connecting to the same server with
an X-Sever running on my workstation did indeed allow the package to be
installed.

This is a microcosm of why installing "all CRAN" packages is a bad idea. Now
extend this to the other 5% of 16000+ packages that will have unclear
requirements, and when you have all those installed try to update just one of
the packages because one of your users has learned of a bug in that pac
I just tried installing forensim on R-devel/Ubuntu 20.04/WSL-2.0 without an
X server (hence DISPLAY was not set). Loading tktcl gives a warning that
Tk is not available because DISPLAY is not set. The installation hung
after the byte-compile message:

I just tried on an up-to-date CentOS 7 with R 4.1.1 built from source
using gcc 8.3.1 (from SCL devtoolset-8; so not the default gcc 4.8.5),
and it works there. If of any help, here's the output when installing
to user's personal package library:

Hey everyone! So, I've been asked by one of our researchers to install "all"
cran packages on one of our servers.Yeah, it's a bit much (and clearly, not
everything will install correctly due to various missing tidbits), but it will
go a long way to having to constantly respond to install re
