I have troubles with installing the package fwildclusterboot. It says that it is no longer available in CRAN. Also didn't succeed even when I exploited it from the archive. I was searching for some new version but could not find it.

Can you please help me how to do it?

  • Welcome to Stack Overflow. Is this a duplicate of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74019208/installing-r-package-from-cran-archive-has-non-zero-exit-status ? Can you please tell us what OS you're using, what you tried, and precisely what "didn't succeed" means (e.g. cut and paste error messages)? – Ben Bolker Oct 11 '22 at 14:21
  • You would need to go to the [archive repository](https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/fwildclusterboot/) and download the latest version, and then install it locally. – Phil Oct 11 '22 at 14:27

I am the author of fwildclusterboot.

Due to issues with a broken dependency I did not manage to fix on time, fwildclusterboot is temporarily not available on CRAN. The long story is that a dependencies' dependency failed a test, then the dependency was not fixed, therefore archived on CRAN, and I did not manage to a) drop the dependency on time and pass all CRAN notes within the given two-three week time limit. Now I am trying to bring the package back, but CRAN is not very responsive towards me.

In the meantime, you can download the package from R universe (a CRAN alternative, set up by rOpensci) by running install.packages('fwildclusterboot', repos ='https://s3alfisc.r-universe.dev'). I hope the package will be back on CRAN soon!
