I am afraid you'll have to tell us what kind of system this is.

Hello, thanks for your quick answer!

My system is Ubuntu 22.04 and this happens when I ran "rig add version"

For now it's working when I put "rig add version --without pak" but I just wanted to know if there is a way to solve it cause I didn't find information about this.

What is the output of these?

id 

echo $HOME

Can you show the full output of

rig add release

?

Is it possible that your sudo is configured not to keep environment variables. E.g. can you copy-paste the output if these?

export FOO=bar
sudo R -q -e 'Sys.getenv("FOO")'
sudo -E R -q -e 'Sys.getenv("FOO")'

I am running out of ideas, but what's the output of this?

sudo R -q -e 'Sys.getenv("HOME")'
sudo -E R -q -e 'Sys.getenv("HOME")'

Do you have some special sudo installed or configured? E.g. did you change /etc/sudoers?

What's the output of these?

which -a sudo
dpkg -l | grep sudo

No that I know, this computer belong to the center where I work so there is a super user who administrates it. However, I have sudo privileges (can install with sudo normally) Not sure if it is related though

Yes, I suspect that this is an interaction of how your sudo is set up and how rig works. I would be happy to fix it in rig, but I don't really know what is going wrong.

Nevertheless, in the meanwhile you can use --without-pak, and if you want to install pak later, you can do that with

source("https://pak.r-lib.org/install.R")

Yes, I installed it on that way (without-pak) I know it is not a big issue cause you always can install pak after from R so no big deal. Thanks anyway for your fast replies and for your great work regarding rig! Amazing tool 👍🏽

I'll leave this issue open until the next rig release, and before the next release I'll some more debug logging to this part, so we'll have a chance to see what's going wrong.

I have the same trouble, in my case my user name is tied to the Microsoft account from the work place and it contains an @ (which I thought could be a problem):

[email protected]@mod2-m49:~$ id
uid=868805708([email protected]) gid=868803355([email protected]) groups=868803355([email protected]),27(sudo),999(shiny),1002(work),1003(shiny-apps),868800513(usuarios del [email protected])
[email protected]@mod2-m49:~$ pwd
/home/[email protected]

All the other info is similar to what is reported by Marcelo Hurtado.
