Hi all,

We’re trying to post our first shiny app and getting the following error:

Error: Unhandled Exception: Child Task 539727854 failed: Error building image: Error building units (0.6-0). Build exited with non-zero status: 1

I saw here that these types of error sometimes refer to dependencies failure.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Correct, the package units depends upon libudunits2-dev.

Given the number of times I have seen this for units in the past couple of weeks, I will open up an issue myself.

But in general, see the documentation regarding system packages.
