Hi,
I am having problems installing the GeoLift library. I am proceeding as per the official instructions:
https://facebookincubator.github.io/GeoLift/docs/GettingStarted/InstallingR
This is what I run in the notebook:
1) I install this particular version of rlang since otherwise I get a message that this particular version is required.
install.packages("https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/rlang/rlang_1.0.5.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")
2) I install the package as per the instructions in the documentation:
install.packages("remotes", repos='http://cran.us.r-project.org')
remotes::install_github("ebenmichael/augsynth")
remotes::install_github("facebookincubator/GeoLift")
I do not see any errors in the log output.
Yet, when I try to import the package, I am getting a package not found error:
library(GeoLift)
Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Hi, Could you please restart the cluster once and check if the package is there? Also, what is the DBR used?
