I am getting this errors trying to install caret package:

ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘ddalpha’
* removing ‘/home/rspark/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.3/ddalpha’
Warning in install.packages :
  installation of package ‘ddalpha’ had non-zero exit status
ERROR: dependency ‘ddalpha’ is not available for package ‘recipes’
* removing ‘/home/rspark/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.3/recipes’
Warning in install.packages :

Warning in install.packages :

Any ideas?

install.packages("ddalpha")

It gives the same error:

/usr/lib64/R/library/BH/include/boost/exception/exception.hpp:137: error: expected declaration before end of line
make: *** [AlphaProcedure.o] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘ddalpha’

I have found a solution. I had the same problem. After installing caret with all its dependencies, ddalpha was not installed. Then I tried installing the package ddalpha alone. I got the message:

" There is a binary version available but the source version is later: binary source needs_compilation ddalpha 1.2.1 1.3.1 TRUE

Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation? y/n: n"

Well, if I anwser yes, it doesn't work. But when I answer no, it does work. It looks like the new version has some problem, but the previous one works fine.

I was facing the same issues, and I had tried almost all the methods mentioned here. But the only one that worked for me was updating my IDE and that sorted it out.
