If you install the development version of devtools, it will work. First, use @aparpara's workaround, then upgrade devtools:

When I tried this I'm getting errors for loading any other package...
How do I reverse this? My R installation is screwed (for now)... |
Thank you! It worked really well! |

Hi, Trying the workaround with R 3.5.1 to get devtools/Rtools to work as described in this issue, but it doesn't appear to work. Any advice?
Error in bindingIsLocked(x, ns) : no binding for "version_info"

@jamesgriggs please just use the CRAN version of devtools, the workaround is no longer necessary. |
@jimhester I am having trouble with Rtools. I downloaded the latest version and followed steps 1-3 on your site https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/pandoc/devtools.html but I am still getting the message: Error in write.xlsx(simple.list, file = "simple_list.xlsx") : Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. |
Error in find_rtools() : could not find function "find_rtools" |
I have the same problem. I am using R version 3.5.1 and RTools 35. I installed the devtools Package and loaded it, but I always get this error message: Error in find_rtools() : could not find function "find_rtools" I also tried every suggested workaround (even though they should not be necessary), but nothing works. I'm running out of ideas. |
Ah, found aother workaround! Loaded pkgbuild and then ran find_rTools . Worked perfectly fine! |
That works fine with pkgbuild but not with devtools.

find_rtools() was removed from devtools, it is only in pkgbuild now. If
you want to call the function you need to load pkgbuild.

I have R3.5.1 and Rtools 3.5.0.4. I tried library(pkgbuild), and find_rtools() is coming TRUE. However when I run "devtools::install_github("rstudio/reticulate", force=TRUE)", I get the error below. Any suggestions are appreciated! WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages, but no version of Rtools compatible with R 3.5.1 was found. (Only the following incompatible version(s) of Rtools were found:3.5) Please download and install the appropriate version of Rtools from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/.

Thank u @krshedd |
Thank you!! I have been trying to get this done for an hour now, I am new to R and did not understand most of the discussions happening. But this answer was very clear! Thanks a lot. |
Yeah. Thanks for that. I am new to R but this really help. I use windows 10, R 3.5.2 version so here is what I did:
So basically we need to install pkgbuild instead of devtools to get TRUE result from find_rtools() function |
