Issues installing required R packages

[brauliovill]

I'm trying to install the required packages for R on a remote linux server.
I installed R within a conda environment using
conda install -c conda-forge r-base=3.6.0
This is "R version 3.6.0 (2019-04-26)"

I then entered R and tried to install diagram:
R
install.packages("diagram", version='1.6.4')

This gave me the following error

* installing *source* package ‘shape’ ...
** package ‘shape’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
** using staged installation
** R
** demo
** inst
** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading
** help

Warning messages:

2: In install.packages("diagram", version = "1.6.4") :
  installation of package ‘diagram’ had non-zero exit status

The package was not installed so I am trying to figure out what I could be doing wrong as I hope to successfully install these R dependencies.

I had to install all of the packages from source like this:

R
<package> = ("https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/<package>/<package>_<version>.tar.gz")
install.packages(<package>, repos=NULL, type="source")
packageVersion("<package>")

The last line is just to check to see if it properly installed

For diagram, this is

diagram = ("https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/diagram/diagram_1.6.4.tar.gz")
install.packages(diagram, repos=NULL, type="source")
packageVersion("diagram")

I have been able to get this to work for all R dependencies except the following:

• ggraph (v2.0.2)
• pdftools (v2.3)
• igraph (v1.2.5)
• tidygraph (v1.1.2)
• dplyr (v0.8.5)

If anyone has ideas to get these installed, please let me know too.
