Set Repo in .Rprofile - Error in data.frame...

[lgschuck]

Hi.

I'm using a .Rprofile file in my user Documents folder in Windows and to set the desired repository i use the command:

options(repos = 'https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/2023-08-21')

Using getOption("repos") i get: "https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/2023-08-21", as i expected.

But out of nowhere a message is printed in my console:

Error in data.frame(name = names(getOption("repos")), host = "", url = as.character(getOption("repos")), :
arguments imply differing number of rows: 0, 1

Absolutelly randomlly this message appears, even if i dont do anything in the console.

Any ideias?

I don't know where the error is coming from, but it is best to set repos to a named vector. E.g. this is what I have in an amd64 Ubuntu 22.04 container:

> dput(getOption("repos"))
c(P3M = "https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/__linux__/jammy/latest",
CRAN = "https://cloud.r-project.org")

Thanks for the help. I changed for

repo['Posit_2023-08-21'] <- 'https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/2023-08-21'

and it seems to fix the problem.
