I’m on LMDE
(that is, on a Debian-based OS like Ubuntu):

R version 4.0.4 (2021-02-15)
Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)
Running under: LMDE 5 (elsie)

and keep getting an error installing libraries.
Sometimes I come across local solutions,
but usually they don’t work for me
(like installing dependent packages,
installing later versions,
installing from github,
etc.).
For package rms I tried the following with the following results.

Attempts

Attempt 1:

if (!require("pacman"))
  install.packages("pacman")

pacman::p_install(rms)

Logs 1:

Installing packages ggplot2 and colorspace didn’t help either.

There were still errors related to fonts and maybe some more,
but after reinstalling I didn’t see them anymore.

I didn’t find anything else on the following links:
1

3

So how do I install this package and in general,
how do I install packages painlessly?

Try a "terminal" install like this:

sudo apt install r-cran-rms

In the terminal:

r@ma:~$ sudo apt install r-cran-rms

Check:

The current CRAN version of the package is 6.6.0

Remark --- delete only in terminal accordingly like this:

sudo apt --purge remove r-cran-rms
sudo apt autoremove

If this method doesn't work, try installing your package in R and read the installation log. Most of all, there will be an advice to install packages, so do that.

If it's something to do with the versions, try updating the packages (be careful, updating R requires reinstalling the required libraries). If that didn't work, try BACKPORTS

tl;dr the current version of these packages won’t work with versions of R earlier than 4.1. This is arguably a bug in these packages: their DESCRIPTION files ought to mandate R >= 4.1.0 (in which case you would get a slightly more informative message telling you that the package was unavailable for your version of R); see here.

To resolve the issue you could:
- update your version of R
- look on the archive pages for Hmisc and rms and use remotes::install_version() to install earlier versions. In particular, since R 4.1 was released in May 2018, any version of Hmisc/rms dated before that should work. More generally, I suspect that there are versions more recent than May 2018 that don’t use the native pipe, but it’s hard to track down when the changes were made.
- as you suggest, install via apt from a Debian-style repository that provides an older version of the package, as in this answer
The key is the errors of the form
```
Error in parse(outFile) : 
  /tmp/RtmpsUMuRd/R.INSTALL3a5392a2cc/rms/R/latex.cph.s:56:49: unexpected '>'
55:       knitr::kable(s, format='html',
56:                    align='r', row.names=FALSE) |>
```
or
```
Error in parse(outFile) : 
  /tmp/Rtmp2kS6VC/R.INSTALL3a165bca1f38/Hmisc/R/movStats.r:398:43: unexpected '>'
```
which occur because your version of R is failing to parse the "native pipe" |>, which wasn’t added until R 4.1.
