I recently updated from R 3.5.3 to R 3.6.1 and rerun all my script. Unfortunately, I appear not to be able to install packages from GitHub repos. I have a slightly modified package that sits in my GH repo that is necessary for some scripts. With R 3.5.3 everything went smoothly, but with the most recent version I get the following error

I tried removing all locked directories, installing on older versions of R, but it seems nothing's working. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
