Hi there, I'm chiming into this thread. First, @aardappel -- this is a fantastic piece of software. Very useful. Thank you very much for developing it. I arrived here with...

@aardappel thanks for replying quickly. Could you advise about the kind of encoding of the .PT file, or any idea of how to move forward with this specific binary data?...

After researching this challenge more, I've realized that writing a program to extract data from the `.PT` file and converting it to a readable format is _way_ beyond my skillset....

Yes, please! It will be outstanding for those of us who work under firewall limitations. At least in my case, CRAN/[MRAN](https://mran.microsoft.com/packages) is considered legit but github isn't :(

I'm not sure whether the thread has drifted away, or I might be missing something, but the following still shows an _**unintended behavior**_: ``` r library(dplyr, warn.conflicts = FALSE) library(ggplot2)...

@SebKrantz this organization is a great initiative. If I may, I would like to remind of [`{rrapply}`](https://github.com/JorisChau/rrapply) which is a great package for dealing with lists. It provides great speed...

Thanks @gaborcsardi ! I successfully installed `pak` via ```r install.packages("pak", INSTALL_opts="--no-test-load") ``` However, `pak::pkg_install()` doesn't work for me. For example, I tried to install `here` package: ```r > library(pak) >...

Unfortunately `pak::cache_clean()` doesn't make any difference. `pak::meta_list()` gives an empty table. ```r > pak::cache_clean() > library(pak) > pkg_install("here") v Loading metadata database ... done Error: Cannot install packages: * here:...

Thanks. So `pak::meta_clean()` and `pak::meta_summary()` run with no problem. However, `pak::meta_list()` is still hanging (after several minutes). See below. As of ```r download.file("https://cran2.r-pkg.org/metadata/bin/windows/contrib/4.1/METADATA2.gz", tempfile()) ``` I assume it won't run...

OK I've made some progress! [This comment](https://github.com/DyfanJones/noctua/issues/122#issuecomment-733851728) is a great reference. But still unclear why the `s3_staging_dir` can't be read from the `config` file. ```shell # .aws/config [profile my-profile-master] region...
