[R-sig-phylo] Unable to install ape on R-devel?

[David Bapst]

Hi all,

I know R-devel is meant to be unstable, but I was curious if anyone
else has had issues with getting ape v4.1, installed as a binary from
CRAN, to work with R-devel recently on Windows (3.5.0 pre-release,
timestamp: 2017-10-19 r73560, specifically Windows 10, although I
don't think its Windows version specific).

As we can see, it appears that ape installs correctly:

```

install.packages("ape")

Warning: unable to access index for repository

package ‘ape’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

The downloaded binary packages are in
C:\Users\adminosaur\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpO8VG9v\downloaded_packages
```

The issue is when we go to go load it:

```

library(ape)

Error: package ‘ape’ was installed by an R version with different
internals; it needs to be reinstalled for use with this R version
```

I tried this with half a dozen mirrors to no avail. Oddly I can see
that ape seems to be functioning just fine on the CRAN Windows testing
machines that use R-devel. So... What's going on?

PS: Hopefully this is a question with a less obvious answer than my
question from last week. ;)
