It took me a few runs to figure out why dependancies were failing at least on OSX, following the instructions, It took a bunch of log checking to figure out that openssl was failing, but was not obvious, as it would error on a different package that was an intermediary.

please don’t add quit() and how to start an R interpreter. people know how to do that 😉

|
@flying-sheep oh, I was trying to clean up my laundry list of PR's, and didn't realize it was still of interest. But if it is still relevant, I will re-open, I had a huge project sent out and was trying to id things of interest still to upstream. reopen |
