Roxygen2: Error with a brand new project

[MaksimRudnev]

After updating roxygen2 to 6.1.0 it keeps showing the following error, even with the brand new projects set up by RStudio (1.1.456) defaults, i.e. containing a single hello.R file.

First time using roxygen2. Upgrading automatically...
Error in .f(.x[[i]], ...) : attempt to apply non-function
Calls: suppressPackageStartupMessages ... read_pkg_description -> read.description -> <Anonymous> -> .Call -> .f
Execution halted

Exited with status 1.

I had the same issue. Updating the desc package to version 1.2.0 fixed it for me.

Thanks, it fixed the problem. Update to roxygen 6.1.0.9 fixes it as well.

Can you please explain how you updated the desc package. I am quite new to package building in R. Thank you.

I get the following error when I try to build my package using Clean and Rebuild under Build Menu

_==> devtools::document(roclets = c('rd', 'collate', 'namespace', 'vignette'))
