If it is Rcpp (I cannot check, I don't have Windows) it is apparently not the
U Lyon mirror as I get identical bits from cloud.r-project.org so it may be
that the PACKAGES file is temporarily inconsistent.

   $ wget -q -O Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.lyon https://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/CRAN/bin/windows/contrib/4.4/Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip
   $ wget -q -O Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.cdn https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/4.4/Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip
   $ ls -l Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.*
   -rw-rw-r-- 1 edd edd 2895664 Nov 12 21:44 Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.cdn
   -rw-rw-r-- 1 edd edd 2895664 Nov 12 21:44 Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.lyon
   $ md5sum Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.*
   1910629d7f209ffad2943c6e50cd4867  Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.cdn
   1910629d7f209ffad2943c6e50cd4867  Rcpp_1.0.13-1.zip.lyon
   $ 

In the meantime you can take advantage of alternate installation approaches

   - install from source, avoiding the .zip file

       install.packages("Rcpp", type="source")
      
   - install from r-universe accessing a different PACKAGES file:

       install.packages("Rcpp", repos = c("https://rcppcore.r-universe.dev",
                                          "https://cloud.r-project.org"))
