Hello,

I'm having this error too after upgrading to Catalina and also updating R, which won't let me run MVM and other commands requiring R packages. I cannot install these packages because I get an error (see below).
All was working prior o these updates...

Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!!
Pascale
