How to install recent packages?

I'm trying to install the more recent packages devtools and plotly, but I can't download recent packages. For example, the more recent version of devtools is 1.12.0 and for plotly is 4.5.5.9000. How to install these recent packages?

Solution

  • I think your mirror takes their time in adding the newer versions. Try this

    repos='http://cran.us.r-project.org' in your install.packages statement
