Trouble installing the update Bipartite package in R 3.3.0?

Question

Is any solution to fix the trouble? I am interested in to install the bipartite package from github. library(devtools) install_github ("carsten/bipartite") or install_github("biometry/bipartite") or even r bipartite?

Answer 1

1) Go to: https://github.com/biometry/bipartite

2) Download the version you want. In this case you want the 2.08. So download the file bipartite_2.08.tar.gz .

3) Go to R and use the command

install.packages(path_to_file, repos = NULL, type="source")

The path_to_file is where the downloaded package is. For example, in my case, is in the Downloads folder. So, I would do:

 install.packages("~/Downloads/bipartite_2.08.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")

Answer 2

You have to install those two first. Hope it works smoothly. I'll try the package today

install.packages("fields")
install.packages("sna")
install.packages("~/Downloads/bipartite_2.08.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")
