Installing RIO Package : shared object ‘haven.so’ not found

Question

I've some problem to install package in R.

I write :

install.packages("rio", dependencies = TRUE)

And it gives the error message:

• installing source package 'rio' ... ** package 'rio' correctement décompressé et sommes MD5 vérifiées ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading Warning: S3 methods '[.labelled', '[.labelled_spss', 'as.data.frame.labelled', 'as_factor.data.frame', 'as_factor.labelled', 'is.na.labelled_spss', 'print.labelled', 'print.labelled_spss', 'type_sum.labelled', 'zap_formats.data.frame', 'zap_formats.default', 'zap_labels.data.frame', 'zap_labels.default', 'zap_labels.labelled', 'zap_labels.labelled_spss', 'zap_missing.data.frame', 'zap_missing.default', 'zap_missing.labelled', 'zap_missing.labelled_spss', 'zap_widths.data.frame', 'zap_widths.default' were declared in NAMESPACE but not found Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) : shared object 'haven.so' not found ERROR: lazy loading failed for package 'rio'

I think that I miss some lib-dev or something like that but I cant find which one I need for rio 's.

Answer 1

While trying to install the rio package in Microsoft windows. I faced an error. In order to resolve that issue, I googled and came to this page.

I know this post is a bit old but thought to share it for those who face a similar issue in installing this package.

Similar to this post: Error: "there is no package called ..." and trying to use install.packages to solve it

I could only install rio when I used the command: install.packages('rio', dependencies = TRUE, repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')

Answer 2

This seems to be a Linux-specific problem ( Got message unable to load shared object stats.so when R starts , shared object 'RCurl.so' not found )

Does uninstalling and reinstalling the haven package fix it?
