I tried to install the av package on centos7 server with R 3.5.3 but am receiving an error. I installed ffmpeg and ffmpeg-devel on centos 7 as below and then followed the instructions of specifying LIB_DIR and INCLUDE_DIR for installing av.
any help would be appreciated. Thanks ``` > install.packages('av', configure.vars = > c("LIB_DIR=/usr/lib64","INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include/ffmpeg")) Installing package into '/home/dominik/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.5' (as 'lib' is unspecified) % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 100 720k 100 720k 0 0 987k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 987k No protocol specified * installing *source* package 'av' ... ** package 'av' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Found INCLUDE_DIR and/or LIB_DIR!
