[R-sig-Debian] R Package: 'ggbreak' in Dockerfile

[Gerber, Lauren J]

Hi All,

Does anyone have experience successfully installing and loading the R package �ggbreak� in a Docker container?

I ask because I have successfully used the �ggbreak� package in a script outside the Docker container (on my local computer), but for some reason, I get the following error message when trying to load it using library(ggbreak) or library(�ggbreak�) inside the same script that has been copied to the Docker container:

Error in library(ggbreak) : there is no package called 'ggbreak'
Execution halted

I have tried installing �ggbreak� using Bioconductor, the �ggbreak� GitHub repo, and the standard install.packages() function in R, and none have helped. The image is building successfully; the issue is specifically when I run the container, which generates the above error message. I am wondering if I am missing some type of dependency upstream, or something else.

Please see the contents of the Dockerfile below:
