Actually, I've noticed a slight difference in output for this version: output |

Yeap. I see you are using conda. I'm not familiar with conda, but it must be shadowing the system libraries or doing improper things with the paths, because it works with plain Ubuntu. |

Ahh, I missed the conda part, thanks. That gives me some ideas. First of which is to delete conda. Let me play around some more & update in a bit. |

Thanks so much @Enchufa2 for the extra pair of eyes. By rights, since I'm using instead of the However, I don't think there's any issue with |

Yep, that would be the next step... sadly I don't have |

For the record I have the same problem and was because conda. I did: |

I ran into this same issue and was able to solve it, so I figured I'd share the solution here. I too was using conda. In my case I have a project using renv to manage packages so I didn't want to install r-units directly. I was able to fix it like this: First, I installed the udunits2 library using conda: Then, in R, I told renv to find the units includes and libraries inside my miniconda instance: > config <- c(units="--with-udunits2-lib=/path/to/home/directory/miniconda3/lib --with-udunits2-include=/path/to/home/directory/miniconda3/include")
> options(configure.args=config)

I am also having problem installing the units package on LInux. My error is If there's anyone here that could help me with this, I would really appreciate it |

There's something wrong with your installation. Try the suggested commands. You missed |

That worked! Managed to install the units package. Thank you! |

I'm having a similar issue - I need to install |

Ok, thank you very much! |
I've run into & been able to solve this issue many times on a few different systems, but I'm stuck this time. First, from
sessionInfo():When running
install.packages('units')I get the familiar:(BTW, I'm not sure where that
config.logis written?)However, I've already successfully installed all the packages as near as I can tell:
Ran successfully. Now, the possibility is that I'm not
includeing the right location during install, which should be covered by the--configure-argspart of the helpful message. First, I looked forut_read_xmlin my/usr/include:So it seems the header is in the "normal" place; anyway, I tried:
Both to no avail.
To make sure I was pointing to the right place per my
sudo apt-get installation, I ran:Noting that
libudunits2.sowas mentioned by theconfigureerror, I tried to point to this as well:All fail the same way. As one last attempt to see if it's related to permissions, I ran:
