Error: Markdown package should be installed and declared as a dependency

[li-shimin]

Hello!

I've been trying to install Meringue but am coming across this error:

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi li-shimin,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It appears it might be an issue with the particular vignette engine used to render the tutorials during your installation. See here for more information.

I am in the processing of updating the DESCRIPTION file as suggested in the error you reported but in the meantime you could try and install MERINGUE without the vignettes by running: remotes::install_github('JEFworks-Lab/MERINGUE', build_vignettes = FALSE). Alternatively, you can try installing the markdown package onto your machine and see if that also solves the issue.

Let me know if that helps and I'll update you once the DESCRIPTION has been updated and checks passed.

Hi Brendan,

Yes, I was able to install MERINGUE without the vignettes. Thanks for all your help!

Hi li-shimin,

Glad to hear that everything is working. I did update the DESCRIPTION file as per the error you reported above so hopefully the vignettes will install next time.

Let me know if you're still having issues,
Brendan
