Error installing loadflex on Mac for R version 3.5.2

[gehringj]

Hi,
I'm getting an error trying to install the loadflex package, shown below.

ERROR: dependencies ‘rloadest’, ‘smwrQW’ are not available for package ‘loadflex’
* removing ‘/Users/####/Library/R/3.5/library/loadflex’
installation of package ‘/var/folders/23/1ys3hzvj0z31wxkmz5gr_6dh0000gn/T//RtmpknegvN/filec086fd454ae/loadflex_1.9.1.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status

I have tried solutions posted on some similar threads (#212), as well as the FAQs page (https://github.com/USGS-R/loadflex/wiki/Installation-FAQ), but have had no such luck with any solutions. (I continue to get the same error, saying it is not available for the most recent version of R.)

Any help is appreciated! Thanks so much!

I think you will probably need to install those missing packages directly from Github:

remotes::install_github('USGS-R/smwrQW')
remotes::install_github('USGS-R/rloadest')

Then try installing loadflex. Because those packages aren't available in a repository, they have to be installed like above.

I can't vouch for the current status of any of these packages as far as maintenance, so would use caution with them.

Thank you for your response! I have tried to install directly from Github, but I get another dependency error.

ERROR: dependency ‘coin’ is not available for package ‘smwrQW’

Have others had similar issues?
