R/geometries

The error message for 0.2.2 is similar to several others,

update.packages(ask=F) trying URL ‘https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/geometries_0.2.2.tar.gz' Content type ‘application/x-gzip' length 53599 bytes (52 KB) ================================================== downloaded 52 KB

  • installing source package ‘geometries' … ** package ‘geometries' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked ** using staged installation ** libs Error: C++17 standard requested but CXX17 is not defined
  • removing ‘/rds/user/jhz22/hpc-work/R/geometries'
  • restoring previous ‘/rds/user/jhz22/hpc-work/R/geometries'

To proceed, we modify ~/.R/Makevars with the following line

CXX17 = g++ -std=gnu++17 -fPIC

We can get away with this,

module load gcc/6
Rscript -e "install.packages('geometries')"
