I am following this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSbb3PyaSu8

but when I try to install rMaps package it says 

install.packages("rMaps")

Warning in install.packages : package ‘rMaps’ is not available (for R version 3.4.0) Warning in install.packages : cannot open URL 'http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.4/PACKAGES.rds': HTTP status was '404 Not Found'

  • @Phil same error Warning in install.packages : package ‘rMaps’ is not available (for R version 3.4.0) – Rohan Jun 17 '17 at 07:03
  • That means it hasn't been built for R v3.4 so you'll need to build it yourself. If you're on Windows this post will help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4739837/how-do-i-install-an-r-package-from-the-source-tarball-on-windows – Phil Jun 17 '17 at 07:09

rMaps is not on CRAN. You can install the dev version from Github.

require(devtools)
install_github('ramnathv/rCharts@dev')
install_github('ramnathv/rMaps')
