RStudio，更新包，重新启动 R，RStudio 进入无限循环

Question

My script gives me a message that I have version 0.2.5 of tidyselect and that version 1.1.0 is required. I use RStudio to update tidyselect. RStudio gives me the message that Restating prior to updating is strongly recommended and that RStudio can restart R and then automatically continue the installation. When I click yes, RStudio goes into an endless loop, continually producing this same message abut updating Loaded Packages.

I don't see any other way to update this package, and this method using RStudio also does not work.

I have the latest (as of today 9/30/20) versions of RStudio and R.

Answer 1

There could be multiple problems at hand but I can think of some that might occur as they have done with me as well.

install.packages("remotes")

#would be aid to install the package into R, then fill in the code below.

remotes::install_github("r-lib/tidyselect")

Since tidyselect is connected to several other packages, R studio will request you to update the other packages as well. If your packages are not updated, it might go into a loop.

Enter 1 after the request to update here to update all the connected packages.

I hope this helped. Otherwise rephrasing your question would help me give more clarity to the situation.
