R 3.6.0 installation issue

[arasselvi]

I am trying to install the package to my Windows 10 PC. None of the following works:

• install.packages('tweetbotornot',dependencies = T)

• devtools::install_github("mkearney/tweetbotornot",INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch", "--no-test-load"))

• devtools::install_github("mkearney/tweetbotornot")

If I try the first one, I get the following error:

Warning in install.packages :
  package ‘tweetbotornot’ is not available (for R version 3.5.3)

And the other devtools options give:

Error in i.p(...) : 
  (converted from warning) installation of package ‘C:..../tweetbotornot_0.1.0.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status

Hello,

I am getting the same error with R 3.6.0

tweetbotornot is not available in install.packages() so it must be installed via github only.

Installing via GitHub throws following error:

library(devtools)
install_github("mkearney/tweetbotornot")

1. Create a Branch on your own GitHub account
2. rewrite line 85 of features-exp.R see Fix unexpected end of input error while installing in Windows #26
3. run devtools::install_github("YOURACCOUNT/tweetbotornot")

I followed all the same steps. and tried to change line 85 but github say there is no change to commit.
I tried to install from fork as well as from master in both cases I am getting this error.
Can any one help me to fix this error.

Had same issues with line 85. This is how I solved it:

first I did: devtools::install_github(repo = "mkearney/tweetbotornot" )
It bombed out after installing all the dependencies.
Then I downloaded the the zip file from github
I then opened the unzipped directory via Rstudio
Opened features-exp.R (this is in the R directory)
Then removed line 85 and replaced it the correct line of code from: c314b1c
Important, that you copy the code, I tried to manually update it and it did not work for some reason.
Then build the library by pressing shft + crtl + b in rstudio
You are now good to go with library(tweetbotornot)
