We detected these problematic arguments: * `INSTALL_opts` Did you misspecify an argument?

问题：

#install.packages('devtools')
#devtools::install_url('BINARY_URL'[, INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch", "--no-test-load")])


#install.packages('devtools')
#devtools::install_url('https://github.com/catboost/catboost/releases/download/v0.16.5/catboost-R-Windows-0.16.5.tgz', INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch", "--no-test-load"))

install.packages('devtools')
devtools::install_url('https://github.com/catboost/catboost/releases/download/v1.0.0/catboost-R-Windows-1.0.0.tgz', INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch", "--no-test-load"))


library(catboost)

解决：

从catboost主页下载包到本地后安装；

# 
install.packages("D:\\Downloads\\catboost-R-Windows-1.0.0.tgz", repos = NULL, type = "source", INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch", "--no-test-load"))

#
library(catboost)

Did you misspecify an argument?

Thanks, I found a solution, First, download catboost pakage (tgz) then use the following code it worked. Perhaps it would be good to add this your instruction page. It may be helpful for others.

install.packages("D:/catboost-R-Windows-0.26.tgz", repos = NULL, type = "source", INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch", "--no-test-load"))
