I have been trying to install dplyr version 1.0.10 on R because I'm having problems with the current version (1.1.0) (there's some sort of error with the mfdb function mfdb_dplyr_prey).

I tried:

> url_dplyr_1.0.10 <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/dplyr/dplyr_1.0.10.tar.gz"
> install.packages(url_dplyr_1.0.10,repos=NULL,type="source")

And I get:

    Have a look at `remotes::install_version` – stefan Feb 13 '23 at 11:28
  • I tried it already and I get the following output: ``` > remotes::install_version("dplyr",version="1.0.10") Downloading package from url: https://cran.rstudio.com//src/contrib/Archive/dplyr/dplyr_1.0.10.tar.gz Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from URL: Could not find tools necessary to compile a package Call `pkgbuild::check_build_tools(debug = TRUE)` to diagnose the problem. ``` – williantafsilva Feb 13 '23 at 11:42

    Can you tell me what you used to copy code into this question? I'm seeing a lot of questions being posted with backslashes in them, and it's broken. I'm editing your question to replace `\<-` with `<-`, but this surge in recent questions suggests a "common practice" has a bug. – r2evans Feb 13 '23 at 13:38
  • For your *"Could not find tools necessary to compile a package"* error, a [google search](https://www.google.com/search?q="macos"+"r"+"Could+not+find+tools+necessary+to+compile+a+package") for that suggests https://stackoverflow.com/q/66359031/3358272. I'm confident there are other discussions, mostly centered on (I believe) needing xcode to install clang or more, and/or verifying they are in your `PATH` (OS level). – r2evans Feb 13 '23 at 13:41

You could try installing the package with the flag turned off:

  • Download source package from CRAN and extract
url_dplyr_1.0.10 <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/dplyr/dplyr_1.0.10.tar.gz"
tar -xzvf dplyr_1.0.10.tar.gz
  • Open src/Makevars file in a text editor and comment out the line that includes -march=native
  • Save and install
R CMD INSTALL dplyr_1.0.10.tar.gz
