Re: Help for test of pkgload
pkgbuild gives this error
> Error: Could not find tools necessary to compile a package
When the R environment is set up in such a way that `R CMD SHLIB
foo.c` cannot create a basic C executable.
Possible culprits might be an invalid compiler location defined in the
site or user makevars file.
(https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#Customizing-package-compilation)
pkgbuild and pkgload have not had a new release in some time and have
been relatively stable overall in the past few years, it is surprising
to me that if previous versions were working in your test environment
the new version would have changed behavior.
Sorry I cannot pinpoint the exact cause from this report, let me know
if there is anything else I could do to help,
Jim
