Hi @afolabiowoloye, I am not the maintainer, but I do think I know the answer:

First, simply try again. We know that pophelper builds successfully, according to the build logs.

The error you posted:

download from 'https://api.github.com/repos/royfrancis/pophelper/tarball/HEAD' failed

Is a bit too short to be informative: there are many reasons a download can fail (e.g. no internet, no access to GitHub due to many downloads, etc ...)

Please post the full error log, as well as the output of Sys.info()["sysname"], as requested by the pophelper maintainer.

Hope that will help you, cheers, Richel Bilderbeek
