Can't install from devtools::install_github('rstudio/shinyapps')

[Rewarp]

I am trying to push apps with shinyapps.io, and this is the command to do in the next step:

devtools::install_github('rstudio/shiny')

This was the output generated in R (ver 3.1.1).

Downloading github repo rstudio/shiny@master
Error in system(full, intern = quiet, ignore.stderr = quiet, ...) : 
  error in running command

I originally filed this issue in shiny, and after failing to make sense of the issue I am filing it here instead.
rstudio/shiny#835

I am seeing the same error for any GitHub install:

> devtools::install_github("hadley/devtools")
Using github PAT from envvar GITHUB_PAT
Downloading github repo hadley/devtools@master
Error in system(full, intern = quiet, ignore.stderr = quiet, ...) : 
  error in running command

Can you please provide the output of devtools::session_info()

[Rewarp]

Sorry for the delay. I ran the devtools command from a new RStudio installation.

> devtools::session_info()

Call options(unzip = 'internal') before calling install_github

[Rewarp]

What's the full syntax? I am, very new to devtools. My apologies.

[thepetestop]

Enter R on the terminal using sudo

$ sudo R

On R,

options(unzip = 'internal')
devtools::install_github('rstudio/shinyapps')

It worked for me. I changed your shiny to shinyapps. You do have the shiny package installed already, I assume.

[Rewarp]

Oh I see. options is the base package. Yes it works now. Thanks!
