Trouble installing nloptr package on R 3.3.0

问题

I can't install the package nloptr 1.0.4 on R 3.3.0. The messages are the following:

My R version is 3.3.0 as you can see below:

Any clues?

I also tried to install in olders versions (2.3.3 and 2.3.4) of R and had the same issue.

Thanks in advance.

回答1:

I tried to reinstall the package as a root and it worked! I don't know why.

回答2:

I was able to solve the problem on my Mac using

$ brew install nlopt

Looking into the issue I noticed that others had reportedly resolved the issue on Ubuntu using

$ sudo apt-get install libnlopt-dev

Apparently you now need to install it outside of R.

回答3:

I had to reinstall R, using the R-CRAN installer and uninstalling the macports package.

It finally worked!

回答4:

If you run into this problem with nloptr 1.2.0 and R 3.5.1 on macOS High Sierra, brew install nlopt will fail because of inadequate permissions in /usr/local. The fix:

$ mkdir /usr/local/Frameworks
$ sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/Frameworks
$ brew install nlopt

In other words, you don't want to change permissions for the entire /usr/local directory. The installation fails when the Homebrew tries to create /usr/local/Framework. So, do it by hand as shown above. Then try again > install.packages("nloptr"). It worked for me.
