A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere

Hi, I am working in Posit Cloud and when I install the library (rdrop2) the terminal gives me the following:
I have this version of R: R version 4.3.2
Is there a solution to this? help, please

Warning in install.packages :
  package ‘rdrop2’ is not available for this version of R

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,
see the ideas at
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages

Since this package and the assetive package are no longer being maintained they have been removed from CRAN. I mad some changes on my branch and so far it still works for me. You can install the version from our branch at:
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("limnotrack/rdrop2")

Hopefully that should work on Posit Cloud.

Oh thanks man! You're a genius

* installing *source* package 'rdrop2' ...
** using staged installation
** R
** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading
** help
*** installing help indices
** building package indices
** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location
** testing if installed package can be loaded from final location
** testing if installed package keeps a record of temporary installation path
*** DONE (rdrop2)**

@tadhg-moore Not fancying taking over the maintenance of rdrop2 ?

As mentioned in readme,

The package is currently not maintained and up for adoption. If you are interested in taking over as maintainer, please send an email to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).

If we can't find another maintainer before something breaks on CRAN, the package will be archived

Your merge request has now been merged by previous maintainer and might be released to Cran on request but that package really needs a new maintainer.
