Hello! I am trying to install some packages as below:

BiocManager::install(c('CATALYST'))

but I keep encountering the errors below ("Use secure download method for HTTP" is unchecked and see Renvrion file in etc folder, but not Rprofile, Renviron.site, and Rprofile.site files - found Rprofile file in another folder, but moving it to the etc folder did not work and could not find Renviron.site and Rprofile.site files anywhere):

I also had issues for installing "densvis" while trying to install other packages. Have you solved this issue?

The error isn't finding the repo but finding your fortran headers. I don't use MacOS, so cannot say for sure, but this appears to be something you could try.

I found that using Google, BTW, which is a good skill to cultivate.

Should be fixed now. Can you try again?

Note that these warnings are benign and did not affect BiocManager::install()'s ability to find packages.

Best,

H.
