R: fails to install LipdR

[MBuss32]

Hi,
I'm trying to install the LiPDR package as I'd like to start playing with it (I dont have much coding experience) but I'm getting the following error when installing via devtools. (also via 'remotes' it doesn't work as suggested in other topic):
Any help?
Thanks! Manuel
