Failed to lock directory when installing R package using devtools::install_github()

问题

When installing an R package from GitHub using devtools::install_github(), the following error was returned:

ERROR: failed to lock directory ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library’ for modifying
Try removing ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library/00LOCK-jrosen48-prcr-4f6f783’

When I navigate using Terminal on Macintosh OS 10.12 to that location, it is not available ( R.framework did not appear in the "Frameworks" directory).

How can I try removing ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library/00LOCK-jrosen48-prcr-4f6f783’? Or, is there another workaround for this?

Try removing /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library/00LOCK-jrosen48-prcr-4f6f783

Remove using rm command from your command line:

:$ rm -rf /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3/Resources/library/00LOCK-jrosen48-prcr-4f6f783

Then install the package again.
