I have issues insalling the R packages SDMTools. 

install.packages("SDMTools")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/aaa/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :

Any idea on how to install SDMTools? I need it to install the package rblm.

Thank you

    [It was removed from CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/SDMTools/index.html). You can download and install it from the archive or from it's GH repo (if it has one). – David Arenburg Feb 26 '20 at 13:37
  • how do you check if an old version is available, and how do you install it? Thank you – Andrew Feb 26 '20 at 13:45

Try running this script:

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_version("SDMTools", "1.1-221")

I know this post is old, but i've been having problems with SDMTools recently, and "remotes" didn't worked. I had success with devtools. Just in case if someone is in trouble.

Indeed for me what solved the problem was the following code:

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_version("SDMTools", "1.1-221")

I used the following script and it worked to install SDMtools in R version 3.6.2

install.packages("remotes") remotes::install_version("SDMTools", "1.1-221")
