I have experienced the following problem during the process of building my package. I tried to search for a solution but was unsuccessful. In order to make the error reproducible, I present a minimal package that could generate the same error.

I started a package with the name mypkg, then I use usethis::use_rcpp and usethis::use_rcpp_armadillo. After that I add the following script in \src folder (which is copied from internet)

#include <RcppArmadillo.h>
// [[Rcpp::depends(RcppArmadillo)]]
// [[Rcpp::export]]
arma::vec getEigenValues(arma::mat M) {
  return arma::eig_sym(M);
}

After that, I add an R shell to export the function using Roxygen. So far the package can be successfully documented and built. Then I continue to add features of Rstan by using rstantools::use_rstan, and follow the steps on Step by step guide for creating a package that depends on RStan, and create lm.stan and lm_stan.R as instructed. Then I built the package again but it throws out an error. Here are the results of executing .Last.error.trace

Could anyone suggest what the problem is? Here is my makevars file

CXX_STD = CXX11
PKG_CXXFLAGS = $(SHLIB_OPENMP_CXXFLAGS)
PKG_LIBS = $(SHLIB_OPENMP_CXXFLAGS) $(LAPACK_LIBS) $(BLAS_LIBS) $(FLIBS)

However, when I follow the steps of the guide to create a package just with Rstan, it could be successfully built, but not when I also want to use RcppArmadillo.

Thank you very much for your kind help!!
