Installing Quantstrat in a recently updated R on Fedora Linux

I recently updated my Fedora distribution and also updated R. I have installed most of the packages, but I cannot install blotter and quantstrat.

How can I solve this problem? Thank!

The error I am getting is the following:

install.packages("quantstrat", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

Warning in install.packages folder: package 'Quantstrat is not available (for version R 3.4.3)

My session info is this:

Your problem is probably not a Linux related issue. Install quantumstrat from sous via github where the last code is:



library(devtools) # need devtools to use install_github
install_github("braverock/quantstrat")

Many thanks! I did it successfully! In both my Fedora and W10 laptop.

I installed a week ago. I had to wait for the new TS package to be available on tap as it required a blotter.



Many thanks!
