Installation issue

[lepennec]

Dear Thomas,

when I try to install the latest CRAN version, the installation stops at the testing step as shown below.
I'm using the latest fedora and I have try both "terminal" R 3.4.1 and rstudio. How can I help?

Strange. Can I get you to confirm that all dependencies are available?

[lepennec]

All the dependencies are here and the package is functional after I kill the installation process.

[thomasp85]

That is really strange - I have not had any problems with Linux otherwise, but I do not have access to a fedora system so I cannot confirm if this is a local problem on your end - do you have access to other fedora systems?

[lepennec]

I will try to investigate... Another symptom is after I use fiery I cannot quit cleanly R.

[thomasp85]

Can I get a sessionInfo() with fiery loaded?

I get word from Twitter that others on fedora doesn't have any problems during installation. Have you updated all packages?

[lepennec]

Yes. I will try to find out what's going on on my laptop. Feel free to close this issue.

I've found the culprit: "later". I had a dev version from github reverting to the one from CRAN solves this issue.
