[R] Help Required for R Markdown function.

It is standard for install.packages to download packages into a temporary directory before actually installing them. That message has been there for many many years every time you install a contributed package.

You have not provided a complete copy of the errors that were generated... I am certain something else happened that was in the output you failed to show us.

While I think RStudio is a fine tool, it does sometimes make non-trivial changes to standard outputs... I recommend that you try things in RGui or R from the command line (in this case the install.packages call) and describe them as such when asking for help here to reduce possible confusion as to where the problem is coming from. If it works in RGui but not in RStudio then you probably need to get help in their community forum.

Also, don't hijack conversation threads... start your own to ask a question, and reply to it as needed. Even changing the subject line doesn't disconnect your question from the original thread in the archive (or most email programs).
