packrat R taking forever to install packages
I need to use packrat in order to create a sort of virtual environment for R. I run these few lines
mywd<-getwd()
packrat::init(mywd)
packrat::set_opts(auto.snapshot=TRUE)
And everything works fine as R output show
Initializing packrat project in directory:
- "C:/Users/marco.fumagalli/TEST_PACKRAT"
Adding these packages to packrat:
_
packrat 0.4.9-3
Fetching sources for packrat (0.4.9-3) ... OK (CRAN current)
Snapshot written to "C:/Users/marco.fumagalli/TEST_PACKRAT/packrat/packrat.lock"
Installing packrat (0.4.9-3) ...
OK (downloaded binary)
Initialization complete!
Restarting R session...
Then I try to install lubridate package with install.packages. Package has few dependencies ( magrittr, stringi , stringr, Rcpp and glue) and it's taking more than 20 minutes to install everything, which it seems quite unusual.
These are basic info of my session
R version 3.5.0 (2018-04-23)
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)
Running under: Windows >= 8 x64 (build 9200)
