I've been trying to run this script:

https://github.com/ajdamico/asdfree/blob/master/Pesquisa%20Nacional%20por%20Amostra%20de%20Domicilios/download%20all%20microdata.R

But on this line

install.packages( c( "MonetDBLite" , "survey" , "SAScii" , "descr" , "downloader" , "digest" , "stringr" , "R.utils" ) )

I get the following message:

Package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of C/C++/Fortran: 
‘MonetDBLite’ These will not be installed

I have very basic code knowledge and couldn't find a fix for this on the web.

Can any1 help, please?

  • Which platform is this? Can you post the output of `sessionInfo()` please? – Hannes Mühleisen Nov 27 '16 at 10:40

  • strange that you are not getting the binary package from CRAN... Brazilian Windows, Anthony, any ideas? – Hannes Mühleisen Nov 29 '16 at 15:47
  • I tried a couple of different CRAN mirrors too. Can't I install it from source? Does MonetDBlite run on 32 bit? – Roberto Dumke Nov 29 '16 at 16:59
  • @RobertoDumke could you try with 64 bit R ? thanks – Anthony Damico Dec 01 '16 at 12:26
  • You can install from source if you have Rtools installed I think. And yes it runs on 32 bits but this does not make too much sense. But you could try to manually install from the binary zip file (https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/3.4/MonetDBLite_0.3.1.zip) – Hannes Mühleisen Dec 01 '16 at 12:26
