Dear all, I need to make use of the |src/install.libs.R| file, in order to perform certain tasks at installation time.

It makes use of |devtools| to simplify the example, but I have tried the installation manually as well. |## Create a minimal buildable package library(devtools) create('testpkg') ## Write src/install.libs.R dir.create('testpkg/src') test.file <- path.expand('~/testfile.txt') diag.lines <- c( deparse(quote(stop('This should break the installation'))), deparse(quote(file.create(test.file))) ) writeLines(diag.lines, 'testpkg/src/install.libs.R') ## Install package ## also tried manually with R CMD INSTALL install('testpkg') ## The installation did not break ## nor the file has been created file.exists('~/testfile.txt') # FALSE ## Cleanup remove.packages('testpkg') unlink('testpkg', recursive = TRUE) | Am I missing something? thanks in advance ?acu.- PS: by the way? |> sessionInfo() R version 3.2.2 (2015-08-14) Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) Running under: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8 [5] LC_MONETARY=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 LC_PAPER=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_NAME=C [9] LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C LC_MEASUREMENT=fr_FR.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] devtools_1.8.0.9000 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_3.2.2 memoise_0.2.1 digest_0.6.8 | ?

I relaunch this question for which I had no answers.
Just in case someone who can give some insight missed it before.
Thanks in advance

I can't really read your code (HTML?), but there are several CRAN packages which make use of this, for example tth, rJava, etc. I just tried installing tth and it ran the script. So you might want to see how your package differs from that one. Duncan Murdoch

We corresponded offline. The problem with the sample is that it has no files in src that trigger processing: those would be Makefile, Makefile.win, Makevars, or source files in supported languages. If the real example doesn't have any of these (e.g. because it is just copying a pre-compiled file from somewhere; not something you should do in a CRAN package, but maybe reasonable in a local one), then the easiest workaround is just to add an empty Makevars file.
