I have a problem installing the R package PearsonDS. In RStudio, I run:
> install.packages("PearsonDS")
Warning in install.packages :

So, I downloaded the package from https://cloud.r-project.org/src/contrib/, and after opening the PearsonDS_1.1.tar file, I enter in the PearsonDS folder in terminal and run R CMD INSTALL .. The error in the config.log reads as follows

How can I solve it? I looked for similar errors (e.g., https://trac.macports.org/ticket/54506?cversion=0&cnum_hist=2) but I didn't manage to solve the issue.
