I am quite new please forgive me, but after 0.6 prophet update from 0.5, R MacOS Catalina. A call to prophet returns
this screenshot. Pop up type warning that I must install build tools.
I tick no and it returns error with no call to prophet.

Any help whatsoever would be immensely helpful as I finalize a presentation.

Thank you.

If you're building the package from source then it will need the build tools though. Why wouldn't you click "yes" in this case?

Thank you so much for the response Sir.
I have clicked Yes and it returns the CNET website page.

Like it says you'll need R build tools to install from source. I'm not sure how CNET got themselves involved here, but you can also download them from here: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/tools/

(and you'll need to install from source because OSX binaries on CRAN are stuck at an old version ... hopefully we can figure that one out soon, #977).

The only alternative that you could consider is installing directly from github using the devtools package:

devtools::install_github('facebook/prophet', subdir='R')

I appreciate that, I’d be ok if clicking yes caused the tools to load, but the CNET thing seems odd. Do you recommend a complete uninstall and then install of R and Prophet?

I'm not really sure where CNET is coming from, I guess that's part of rstudio? I don't think re-installing R would be necessary, you just need to install the build tools. There are some directions here on what to install to get rstan working (at which prophet would install): https://discourse.mc-stan.org/t/rstan/11723

Installed tools via the terminal window of Rstudio.
Xcode-select —install

Problem solved and works perfectly on MacOS Catalina / Prophet, v0.5 and v0.6
