Dear all

I am trying to install ReporteRS package on RStudio (R 3.4) under a Linux Mint and then when it is installing its dependece package ReporteRSjar the following error happens:

Installing package into ‘/home/ecacarva/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.4’

(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)

** testing if installed package can be loaded

Segmentation fault

ERROR: loading failed

* removing ‘/home/ecacarva/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.4/ReporteRsjars’

Warning in install.packages :

  installation of package ‘/tmp/RtmpUMNrBk/downloaded_packages/ReporteRsjars_0.0.2.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status

Somebody would help me to fix it?

Hi

This is a major issue created by security linux patch. It affects not only ReporteRs but all packages using rJava.

https://github.com/davidgohel/ReporteRs/issues/194

Hopefully, this will be solved soon. A workaround would be to reverse the security patch.
