I am on a computer with Ubuntu 12.04 (64-bit), R 3.3.0 and Bioconductor 3.3.

When I try to install the package mygene, I keep getting the error 'dereferencing pointer to incomplete type' when R installs mygene's dependent package openssl and httr. Below is the full output from R.

Please kindly assist. Thank you!

Carlos

I can't reproduce this easily, but I do wonder whether it has to do with the version of OpenSSL you've trying to compile against.  It looks like you have version 1.1.0, which is still in beta testing and isn't recommended for use.  I wonder if this is the source of the problems.  

Perhaps you can try removing it (it's also sitting in your R installation directory which is a little unusual), and using the version provided by your linux package manager.

Dear Mike,

You're right! OpenSSL 1.1.0 appears to be the problem. Thanks for your reply!

Carlos
