|      -debugme

Well, maybe see the excellent website by Josh:  http://www.tinyverse.org  ;-)

Dependencies impose a burden on everybody.  Be patient, we will likely have
binaries of all (or most) of the eightyfour (!!!) recursive dependencies
of tidyverse (from the last time I counted) at some point.

Amicalement,  Dirk
