Renjin cannot install (default) packages

Question

I am new to Renjin and cannot install packages with the AetherPackageLoader. I am getting the same error as in Renjin can't load pckages but with a seemingly correct Gradle file (please notice the a4Base dependency):

testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'
compile "org.renjin:renjin-script-engine:3.5-beta43";
//    compile group: 'org.renjin.cran', name: 'e1071', version: '1.7-2-b1'
compile group: 'org.renjin', name: 'renjin-aether-package-loader', version: '0.8.1938'
compile "org.renjin.bioconductor:a4Base:1.27.0-b3"

The full error is:

18:08:35: Executing task 'PackageTest.main()'...

The example code only configures a session with an instance of AetherPackageLoader and try to execute an R command that loads a library that will need to be installed. The code fails sooner, when the session builder creates the session and loads the default packages.

AetherPackageLoader loader = new AetherPackageLoader();
loader.setRepositoryListener(new ConsoleRepositoryListener(System.out));
loader.setTransferListener(new ConsoleTransferListener(System.out));

Session session = new SessionBuilder()
        .withDefaultPackages()
        .setPackageLoader(loader)
        .build();

RenjinScriptEngineFactory factory = new RenjinScriptEngineFactory();
RenjinScriptEngine engine = factory.getScriptEngine(session);

String code = "library('digest')";

SEXP sexp = (SEXP)engine.eval(code);
System.out.println(sexp);

I'd appreciate any help with AetherPackageLoader. I read the documentation and cannot tell what is missing. Thanks a lot, Miguel

EDIT: I cannot reproduce this error on a Windows PC. I believe this is related to other errors I am getting in RStudio since after the update to MacOS Catalina. I think there is a problem with the permissions after the update.

如果您将依赖项包含在 gradle 文件中，那么这些库将在类路径中可用，并且无需使用 AetherPackageLoader。
