Good afternoon everyone!

I am trying to install audio.whisper package in R. I have done everything according to the instructions:

remotes::install_github("bnosac/audio.whisper", ref = "0.2.1")

I got an error, because remotes library was not installed, so I installed it. When running remotes::install_github("bnosac/audio.whisper", ref = "0.2.1") I get an error: Installation of package '.../audio.whisper_0.2.1.tar.gz' has non-zero exit status: enter image description here

Next, I follow the recommendation and install Rtools and the pkgbuild library: enter image description here enter image description here Even if on the notification that there are newer versions of packages, I choose to update everything - the result is the same: enter image description here

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong, or if I'm doing everything right, what's missing and what needs to be installed? My goal is to transcribe audio into text.

UPDATE: Following the advice I restarted RStudio after installing Rtools - it worked, audio.whisper was installed. But even here it did not do without problems - it seems to be installed, but it refuses to load the model:

> remotes::install_github("bnosac/audio.whisper", ref = "0.2.1")
Skipping install of 'audio.whisper' from a github remote, the SHA1 (ee508e82) has not changed since last install.
  Use `force = TRUE` to force installation

trying URL 'https://huggingface.co/datasets/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/resolve/main/ggml-large.bin'
Something went wrong
Error in utils::download.file(url = url, destfile = to, mode = "wb") : 
  cannot open URL 'https://huggingface.co/datasets/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/resolve/main/ggml-large.bin'

whisper_init_from_file: loading model from 'E:/Документы/ggml-large.bin'

Thank you in advance for your help!

    It doesn't look like you installed RTools https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/. You need to do that outside of R. Make sure to use a version that matches the R version you are running. Restart R after you install RTools to make sure it can find the new tools. You can run `pkgbuild::find_rtools()` to make sure the program is installed correctly. In the future, please [do not post code or errors in images](https://meta.stackoverflow.com/q/285551/2372064) -- it makes it harder for other to search for similar problems. – MrFlick Jul 10 '23 at 15:30

    @MrFlick, do you have good past-questions for Rtools? (I don't.) It seems that that should be a FAQ (with solid, canonical answers) for dupe-questions. – r2evans Jul 10 '23 at 15:42

    @r2evans Not sure I have a great one. This one seems to match the "make not found" error that was shown in the screen shots: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53279685/r-make-not-found-when-installing-a-r-package-from-local-tar-gz – MrFlick Jul 10 '23 at 15:44
  • @MrFlick, I have that one too, was hoping for something a little better :-). Thanks! – r2evans Jul 10 '23 at 15:46
  • @MrFlick Yes, I installed RTools outside of RStudio. About the code on the screenshots - I took note of it, I'll fix it! – prolabrus Jul 10 '23 at 15:56
  • It would be great if someone asked an intended canonical dupe for RTools... none of the ones I can find are very comprehensive. – Gregor Thomas Jul 10 '23 at 16:03
  • @prolabrus I'd recommend updating your packages. Your 3rd screenshot says "It is recommended to update packages" and asked you which to update. You selected `3: None` Instead, try selecting `1: All`. – Gregor Thomas Jul 10 '23 at 16:05
  • @Gregor Thomas, Yes, that's what I did, I've attached a screenshot too. – prolabrus Jul 10 '23 at 16:30
  • What if you try `model <- whisper("large", repos="ggerganov")` – MrFlick Jul 10 '23 at 16:48
  • @MrFlick - Same thing: ``` library(audio.whisper) model <- whisper("large", repos="ggerganov") trying URL 'https://ggml.ggerganov.com/ggml-model-whisper-large.bin' Something went wrong Error in utils::download.file(url = url, destfile = to, mode = "wb") : cannot open URL 'https://ggml.ggerganov.com/ggml-model-whisper-large.bin' whisper_init_from_file: loading model from 'E:/Документы/ggml-model-whisper-large.bin' whisper_init_from_file: failed to open 'E:/Документы/ggml-model-whisper-large.bin' ``` – prolabrus Jul 10 '23 at 17:01
  • It looks like all the URLs that are hard coded in the package for the model downloads are incorrect. Maybe try filing an issue with the package author to update to the correct URLs: https://github.com/bnosac/audio.whisper/issues – MrFlick Jul 10 '23 at 17:16
  • @MrFlick - I see, thank you! – prolabrus Jul 10 '23 at 17:24
