Unable to install clusterProfiler - ggraph and igraph errors

[Adrian-Zet]

Dear clusterProfiler team,

I've been trying to install this package from both the BiocManager repository and the Github development version and I keep getting the same error:

• I tried it both in a normal local R-4.2.2 installation and by using packrat to isolate the installation path. Unfortunately to no avail. Can you please provide some help. I also tried installing the igraph and ggraph packages separately, unfortunately with the same results.

In case you were not able to solve this yet, please post the code you used to install in the 'normal' R installation. Now we only have info on the error, but not on what you tried.

This should work:
http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/clusterProfiler.html

if (!require("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install( c("clusterProfiler") )

Hello,

I managed to solve all the issues by following the following issue threads: igraph/rigraph#275, igraph/rigraph#477, and igraph/rigraph#335.

Also I had to perform the installation using:

BiocManager::install("clusterProfiler", dependencies = TRUE, INSTALL_opts = '--no-lock')

Thanks for reporting back, and good to hear you were able to solve it.

Based on the threads you link to, it likely had to do with an installation of conda that 'overruled' the default paths of your Linux installation? If so, i think it is good to mention (for the archive) that in such cases it good to check that the conda environment has been deactivated before installing igraph. igraph/rigraph#275 (comment)
