Upstream digest issue: eddelbuettel/digest#189 .

@gaborcsardi: Situations like this may occur, what's a good way to deal with them? Currently, running pak::pak() doesn't work for many repos for me.

[gaborcsardi]

There is no good way, AFAICT.

[gaborcsardi]

Fwiw if you use 'upgrade=FALSE', which is the default in setup-r-dependencies, then pak will install the older binary package, unless the newer version is needed by another dependency.

[krlmlr]

What would an equivalent pkgdepends (?) reprex look like?

[gaborcsardi]

Actually, if the problem is a broken package version, then fixing that package to a version that is known to be OK, like you did, is a pretty good solution, I think.

[gaborcsardi]

Re the original error, I get

❯ pak::pkg_install("deps::.")
Error:
! error in pak subprocess
Caused by error:
! Could not solve package dependencies:
* deps::.: Platform mismatch
Type .Last.error to see the more details.

because the deps:: "package" is considered as source. So that's a bug.

For other package sources, the binary is correctly selected:

❯ pak::pkg_install("digest?reinstall&nocache")

→ Will install 1 package.
→ Will download 1 CRAN package (273.60 kB).
+ digest   0.6.31  ⬇ (273.60 kB)
ℹ Getting 1 pkg (273.60 kB)
✔ Got digest 0.6.31 (aarch64-apple-darwin20) (273.60 kB)
✔ Downloaded 1 package (273.60 kB)in 1.4s
✔ Installed digest 0.6.31  (33ms)
✔ 1 pkg: added 1, dld 1 (273.60 kB) [1.7s]

[krlmlr]

Thanks, good catch. I thought this was about digest when it was about the local package.

[gaborcsardi]

Actually, the correct test is with upgrade = TRUE, because the default upgrade = FALSE always selects the binary. But that's the same:

❯ Sys.setenv(PKG_PLATFORMS = "aarch64-apple-darwin20")
❯ pak::pkg_install("digest?reinstall&nocache", upgrade = TRUE)

→ Will install 1 package.
→ Will download 1 CRAN package (273.60 kB).
+ digest   0.6.31  ⬇ (273.60 kB)
ℹ Getting 1 pkg (273.60 kB)
✔ Got digest 0.6.31 (aarch64-apple-darwin20) (273.60 kB)
✔ Downloaded 1 package (273.60 kB)in 689ms
✔ Installed digest 0.6.31  (33ms)
✔ 1 pkg: added 1, dld 1 (273.60 kB) [996ms]

[gaborcsardi]

Reprex:

library(pkgdepends)
dir.create(pkg <- tempfile())
dir.create(lib <- tempfile())
setwd(pkg)
Sys.setenv(PKG_PLATFORMS = current_r_platform())
writeLines("Package: foo\nVersion: 1.0.0\nSuggests: digest", "DESCRIPTION")
p <- new_pkg_installation_proposal("deps::.", config = list(library = lib))
p$solve()
p$show_solution()
#> Error: ! Could not solve package dependencies:
