Description Silvio 2021-01-20 18:14:48 UTC 
It is out the new (long awaited) version since yesterday

https://blog.rstudio.com/2021/01/19/announcing-rstudio-1-4/

it is an important version because it integrates Python inside the IDE.

I hope to have it in portage soon.


Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Silvio 2021-01-23 19:37:21 UTC 
Any news? It would be great to have this new version available asap.

File a pull request with a draft which you've tested. Rebase the patch or drop it if it looks irrelevant now?

I'm not able to prepare an ebuild. But I can make all the needed test.

Is there anyone able to make an initial draft?

Comment 11 Silvio 2021-02-27 11:48:14 UTC 
A pity, I'm installing Windows on Virtualbox to use Rstudio 1.4.
But it is quite crazy ;)

Any idea of the time when it will be available on portage?

thanks a lot

I assume gienah is too busy, your best bet would be copying the existing one, seeing what breaks, and learn on IRC (#gentoo-dev-help)?

The patch may not be needed anymore, so you could try dropping it temporarily.

I tried at the beginning but it doesn't work.
I'll try again if no skilled people have time to do it :)
Comment 14 Silvio 2021-03-09 10:49:58 UTC 
I tried but it exits with this error, not findint Mathjack which is regularly installed.


- Found R: /usr/lib64/R
-- Found Qt: /usr/lib64/qt5/bin/qmake
CMake Error at src/cpp/session/CMakeLists.txt:26 (message):

Probably it has to be patched so that it look for it in the right place.

I'll send my ebuild immediatly

Comment 24 Silvio 2021-04-13 14:08:45 UTC 
Any news? When will I be able to test a new ebuild?
Comment 25 wolfgang 2021-04-30 00:08:16 UTC 
@silvio: so sorry for being so quiet!

I must have missed your emails, there's been a flood of emails related to guru overlay lately and I think yours got lost in the maelstrom (or more likely - I'm just not good about checking this email account...)

YES! rstudio is ready for test. Here's what you will have to do to test:

1) install the gwt ebuild located in [this][1] pull request
2) install the soci ebuild located in [this]2[] pull request
3) finally, install rstudio located in [this][3] pull request

you should probably uninstall all three of those if they are already present on your system, just to be safe.

I'll work through your backlog of messages here to see if I'm missing anything: I did notice that you mentioned a newer version of rstudio: yikes! Lol, let's see how this 1.4.1106 goes first and then I'll think about upgrading the ebuild.

Regarding things to test - not really sure! I'm not really familiar with rstudio or its functionality.

Some things that come to mind:

- How does rstudio use pandoc? It was a dependency on the previous ebuild, but I did not include it in this version and things seem to compile fine.
- Do you use rserver at all? you can install it with USE=server

Ok, [new patch][1] added which should resolve the boost signals issue. I'll probably submit this one upstream, as they've just made an error in how they're comparing the boost version.

> I tried with it. The boost problem disappeared but there are other error.

Are you sure you downloaded the updated ebuild? From the build.log you attached, I don't see the new patch being applied. Also, it looks like the old boost behaviour is still present "-- Using Boost.Signals version 1". This should say "version 2" instead.

Please try the following:

1. Download the entire contents of [this][1] directory. It may be easier to use a service such as[downgit][2]
2. Place the downloaded "rstudio" folder into your local overlay: something like "mv rstudio /path/to/local/overlay/sci-mathematics/" (make sure the sci-mathematics directory exists first)
3. emerge =sci-mathematics/rstudio-1.4.1106

please let me know if you need help with this.

I've downloaded the file but probably I messed up something.
I followed your advice: I downloaded everything from scratch and compilation went fine.

I got rstudio 1.4 compiled and working. I performed few tests even using cuda and everything works fine (just a crash but it could be a random event).

The only thing is that it doesn't create the menu voice and it dowsn't appear in the list of application when you have to choose the app to open *.R files (it removed association).

It is not a big problem but should be fixed.

However, thank you a lot for the great job.

That's excellent! I'm glad to hear you got it up and running.

I'm very interested in learning more about this crash - if you're up for it, can you walk me through what I can do to reproduce it? (I'm not at all familiar with how rstudio works, lol)

I took it to mean desktop file and/or the xdg stuff we need to install to make “open with” work in file explorers. See the atom(?) and VS Code ebuilds for examples.

Ah, the last version of the ebuild had this stuff, I just never added it.

I use KDE and Rstudio disappeared from the "application" K menu.
Moreover if I try to open a *.R file (file created with Rstudio) Rstudio doesn't appear in the possibile choices.

I'm trying to use my code in a Convolutionary Neural Netowork using CUDA to use my GPU and everything hangs. It could be CUDA or R not just rstudio.
Moreover I cannot reproduce the crash, so I'm not worried.

Understood, I think I know how to fix this. I'll let you know when I have something ready.

Got it - if you experience any other crashes please let me know.

One thing I am very interested in: previous version of this ebuild (and even upstream itself) talks about a dependency on pandoc. However, I have not added this dependency to the ebuild itself - it compiles fine without it.

But I'm not sure how exactly pandoc is used during runtime. So, two questions:

1) Do you have pandoc installed on your system?
2) Do you know how pandoc is used within rstudio?

1) I do have pandoc on my system
2) I think it is used to manage Markdown documents (and conversions)

Sorry I got distracted and should have included the following link announcing a new release of RStudio which supports the recent release of R-4.1...

gwt version bump is in ::gentoo now, so if you update world you should get it.

I can look into updating my PR to use this newer version, though I may not get a chance to work on it for a week or two.
Comment 61 Silvio 2021-06-26 21:24:26 UTC 
I tried to start the server version and it crashes at the startup.
In syslog I got

Jun 26 23:20:27 titanium rserver[18686]: ERROR Could not update database to latest schema; LOGGED FROM: rstudio::core::Error rstudio::server_core::database::initialize(const string&, bool, const boost::optional<rstudio::core::system::User>&) src/cpp/server_core/ServerDatabase.cpp:275

Comment 62 Silvio 2021-06-27 08:10:25 UTC 
I found that the previous version has two files in 

/etc/rstudio

I'll upload now in this thread.

However they don't specify the db directory. It seems to me that the problem is this.

No such file or directory) [path: /usr/db]

I haven't this directory in my system (not I had in the previous version).

Probably we have just to specify the correct version.


However we have a problem: the server doesn't start at all.
Comment 63 Silvio 2021-06-30 19:57:33 UTC 
Any idea on how to test and/or to solve this issue? 
The server doesn't start at all :(
Comment 64 wolfgang 2021-06-30 21:52:13 UTC 
i have a feeling the issue is associated with some hard-coded paths in the rstudio code base. i've patched most of them but perhaps i'm missing a few.

this is on my list just need to find time to work on it.
Comment 65 Silvio 2021-06-30 21:56:51 UTC 
Well I can create a virtual link to the right directory for /usr/db as temporary workaround.
Do you know what it is?
Comment 66 Silvio 2021-06-30 22:00:16 UTC 
I tried with /var/db

# ln -s /var/db/ /usr/db


but it crashed with another error

ERROR database error 7 (sqlite3_statement_backend::prepare: no such table: revoked_cookie) [description: Could not delete expired revoked cookies from the database, description: Could not read revoked cookies from the database]; OCCURRED AT virtual rstudio::core::Error rstudio::core::database::Connection::execute(rstudio::core::database::Query&, bool*) src/cpp/core/Database.cpp:464; LOGGED FROM: int main(int, char* const*) src/cpp/server/ServerMain.cpp:729

Comment 67 wolfgang 2021-06-30 22:15:59 UTC 
Hm, it looks like it's trying to open a db that doesn't exist or that it can't find 

I may be missing a dependency or else it is getting confused between the hard codes paths and my patched ones.

Another possibility is that i have forgotten to include a file in the new version that was installed with the previous ebuild.

This is all guesswork at the moment, though, until i have a chance to dig in to it.

Well, I forced the db putting a virtual link from /usr/db to /var/db. Sureley it is not correct.

If I can test something let me know.

well there are to packages you have to put in dependencies to have the correct users:

acct-group/rstudio-server
acct-user/rstudio-server

Let me know.

Sylvio,

Thank you for checking in. Unfortunately i have not had time to work on this lately. I will provide an update here once i have had a chance to look at it
Comment 71 Adam Wenocur 2021-08-09 16:19:02 UTC 
FYI, I have based a new ebuild on this pull request.

It is for version 1.4.1717 of rstudio, and it is in my personal overlay.

You are welcome to use it, or to guide me through the process of making this ready for production.

It relies on the soci PR that is on this ticket, which has not been added to my personal repo yet. I have _not_ used the gwt PR on this ticket, and it is working on my machine.

> I got this error

It looks as though emerge had a permissions error reading a patch from within the $PORTAGE_TMPDIR directory, during the prepare phase. Have you checked the permissions of files in /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics/rstudio-1.4.171 or of the overlay itself? Maybe removing the build directory before merging is necessary.
Comment 74 Adam Wenocur 2021-08-11 00:14:18 UTC 
Looking at how the files directory is a symlink, be sure that the portage user has read access to the overlay.
Comment 75 Silvio 2021-08-11 05:56:40 UTC 
You are right there wasn't "x" for all in "files" subdir.

now it starts but exits in this way:

Silvio,

Can you pull the latest master branch from my repo and try again? It was working for me with CMake 3.18.5, but perhaps your version is different.

In the latest ebuild, I have changed the RSTUDIO_USE_SYSTEM_YAML_CPP flag to be in better compliance.
Comment 77 Silvio 2021-08-11 14:08:42 UTC 
Same error, even with the new version:

As far as I can see you changed from
-DRSTUDIO_USE_SYSTEM_YAML_CPP=TRUE
to
-DRSTUDIO_USE_SYSTEM_YAML_CPP=ON

But the error seems to say something different:

CMake Error at src/cpp/CMakeLists.txt:222 (message):
  yaml-cpp not found (re-run dependencies script to install)

He seems to want to use yaml-cpp but it could not find it.

I reinstalled yaml-cpp packages but nothing changes.







I put here my emerge --info:

> Same error, even with the new version:


It looks as though you're using an unstable version of CMake. Do you get the same error with the latest stable version?

I will try with 3.21.1 and see what happens on my end.

Tha is not "unstable" but "testing" now.

I'm compiling all my system now and I don't want to mess up compilation.

As soon as it finished I'll downgrade cmake to 3.20.5 and I'll try to recompile rstudio.
Comment 80 Silvio 2021-08-11 14:47:57 UTC 
Just a question: did you solve the server issue? I mean, with your last ebuild does the rstudio-server works?

The source is configuring correctly with CMake 3.21.1 on my system. I guess something else is breaking it. It continues on to build correctly.

(In reply to Silvio from comment #80)

I don't have it running, due to some configuration problems. I'm still using the old systemd service, which will have to be upgraded. I haven't yet added the user/group ebuilds as deps, but I could do that.

However, it does build when I enable the server flag. From what I can tell, on my system, all the binaries are correct, and we just have to figure out config and parameters.

Comment 83 Adam Wenocur 2021-08-11 15:48:37 UTC 
Whatever the problem is, the failure seems to be that find_package(yaml-cpp REQUIRED) on line 218 of the patched src/cpp/CMakeLists.txt is not setting the correct YAML_CPP_INCLUDE_DIR, or that the yaml-cpp headers are not present where CMake's find_package routine is expecting them.

It may help to check that all headers for yaml-cpp are present in /usr/include/yaml-cpp/ and that /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/yaml-cpp.pc is valid.

It's part of the yaml-cpp package. I have version 0.6.3-r3 installed.

We got it! It is a problem of 

dev-cpp/yaml-cpp-0.7.0

with your version (0.6.3-r3) and the following one (0.6.3-r4) the compilation of rstudio goes on passing by the yalm-cpp control.

So I'm opening a new bug for yaml-cpp.

In the meantime rstudio is compiling so I'll keep you updated about the process as soon as it will finish.


I'll let you know if the server works or not.

Thank you Adam!

It has finished to compile. It works!

Well, this doesn't still work. A pity because it is very useful to access to rstudio via other devices (such as tablets).

Let me know if you understand the reason of the crashes of the daemon

Thanks for the info. It looks different from the failures I'm getting, but of a similar nature: there are some directories that have to be created, and permissions that have to be set correctly. Any further investigation or solutions you share here can ultimately be incorporated into the ebuild.

I'll try a few things, but might not fix it alone.

Let me know what can I test. I'll do my best to identify how to make it run.
Comment 91 Silvio 2021-08-13 21:10:33 UTC 
I tried to create the file:

/etc/rstudio/database.conf 

in this way:

####
provider=sqlite

# Directory in which the sqlite database will be written
directory=/var/lib/rstudio-server
####

but nothing changes, it doesn't start.
Comment 92 Silvio 2021-08-14 13:03:00 UTC 
I made more investigation.

As in the error (the second one) says:

 ERROR system error 2 (No such file or directory) [path: /usr/db]

I tried to create the /usr/db directory

# mkdir /usr/db

than running 

# ./rstudio-server verify-installation

within the correct directory (it is not in the PATH) /usr/share/rstudio/bin, I got a new error:

[rserver] ERROR database error 7 (sqlite3_statement_backend::prepare: no such table: revoked_cookie) [description: Could not delete expired revoked cookies from the database, description: Could not read revoked cookies from the database]; OCCURRED AT virtual rstudio::core::Error rstudio::core::database::Connection::execute(rstudio::core::database::Query&, bool*) src/cpp/core/Database.cpp:494; LOGGED FROM: int main(int, char* const*) src/cpp/server/ServerMain.cpp:763


Probably we need to prepare the db with the correct tables and it should be enough. But I don't know how to do it.

I opened and bug is fixed now:

Now the only issue seems the server version that doesn't start yet.

No, even if they fixed the lack of the 

/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/yaml-cpp.pc

it is not enough, even with yaml-cpp-0.7.0-r1 I got the same error.
I have to mask it for now.

Not making any promises, but in case I get a chance to work on this can somebody please show me a sample of how I might use the server? Maybe just a few commands on how to get it up and running and then how to communicate to it?

Well, first of all you have to test the starting services:

# /etc/init.d/rstudio-server start

now after this i get:

# /etc/init.d/rstudio-server status
 * status: crashed

When it will start correctly you will be able to connect to the web version in this way on your browser:

http://localhost:<IpPort>

The default IpPort should be 8787. If it works you should see the login page.

Comment 107 Silvio 2021-11-07 17:06:34 UTC 
Is there anyone of the mantainers who are working on the bump?

Now the 1.3 version in not fully compatible to the R proposed by portage.

It is becoming obsolete and it should be ready as soon as possibile.

Thanks to wolfgang I had a manual version (even if not fully functioning: no server mode for instance), but for Gentoo people it is important to have an official one.

Let me know how can I help.
Comment 108 Silvio 2021-11-16 22:46:28 UTC 
I'm a bit confused. 

We have the good Adam work here:


https://github.com/awenocur/asw-custom-software-gentoo/tree/master/sci-mathematics/rstudio

And now there are also this version:

https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/19865

Does it mean that we will have an official one on portage?

It is quite a year old update. 

As I said several time, if I could do any test, I'm available.

I agree, I'm using Adam ebuild and it works fine.

The only problem I can see is that the server doesn't start.
(/etc/init.d/rstudio start)

It is not necessary to mask yaml (>=dev-cpp/yaml-cpp-0.7.0) anymore.

I think the needed fixes are very little.

Comment 111 Silvio 2021-11-29 21:26:15 UTC 
For one who wants to try adams version.

1. If you don't have install eselect repository command 
# emerge -u eselect-repository

2. If you dont' have one yet, create a local repository 
# eselect repository create localrepo

3. Create a directory for rstudio in your local repository
# mkdir -p /var/db/repos/localrepo/sci-mathematics/rstudio

4. Download the last Adam's version:
go to: https://downgit.github.io/#/home
and put in the form the url of the git repository:
https://github.com/awenocur/asw-custom-software-gentoo/tree/master/sci-mathematics/rstudio

5. Unzip the zip file in the directory created in point 3


6. Download the soci package here
https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/20575/files

7. Create dir in localrepo
mkdir -p /var/db/repos/localrepo/dev-db/soci

8. Copy all soci file in this directory

9. emerge rstudio
Comment 112 Silvio 2021-12-02 08:19:27 UTC 
Just another bit of information.
Launching directly the command "rserver" as root it answers saying that it has to be launched as normal user.
Launching with my user it says two things:

$ rserver
02 Dec 2021 07:57:22 [rserver] ERROR Could not change permissions for specified 'server-data-dir' - the directory (/var/run/rstudio-server) must be writeable by all users and have the sticky bit set; LOGGED FROM: int main(int, char* const*) src/cpp/server/ServerMain.cpp:659
02 Dec 2021 07:57:22 [rserver] ERROR system error 1 (Operation not permitted) [path: /var/run/rstudio-server]; OCCURRED AT rstudio::core::Error rstudio::core::{anonymous}::changeFileModeImpl(const string&, mode_t) src/cpp/shared_core/FilePath.cpp:311; LOGGED FROM: int main(int, char* const*) src/cpp/server/ServerMain.cpp:662


I correct the first message making the directory:
/var/run/rstudio-server
writable (executable) for everyone
sticky

The first message disappears but still I got the second one

$ rserver
02 Dec 2021 08:11:07 [rserver] ERROR system error 13 (Permission denied) [path: /var/lib/rstudio-server, target-dir: ]; OCCURRED AT rstudio::core::Error rstudio::core::FilePath::createDirectory(const string&) const src/cpp/shared_core/FilePath.cpp:812; LOGGED FROM: int main(int, char* const*) src/cpp/server/ServerMain.cpp:694



So I retried to launch as root (no message but it doesn't do nothing) and relaunching as user I got two messages this time, the second is the famous 

(No such file or directory) [path: /usr/db]


$ rserver
02 Dec 2021 08:12:05 [rserver] ERROR Could not update database to latest schema; LOGGED FROM: rstudio::core::Error rstudio::server_core::database::initialize(const string&, bool, const boost::optional<rstudio::core::system::User>&) src/cpp/server_core/ServerDatabase.cpp:325

You are right. It doesn't compile.

Yes, but it is not in portage. Portage version doesn't compile. So it is crucial to have the 1.4 completed. And I think the server version it is fundamental.

I'm still available to make all necessary tests.

Comment 120 Adam Wenocur 2022-01-21 22:48:45 UTC 
At this point, it appears they've changed to a calendar-based versioning scheme. My upcoming goals are as follows:

update current ebuilds to version 2021.09.2+382 or later

resolve database dependencies

add directory structures during src_install

add config and initialization for local database


I don't have a timeline for this, as I have competing projects, but possibly the first step will be done this month.

Hi Adam, did you do any step?

Comment 125 Silvio 2022-02-21 10:54:49 UTC 
Hi to all.
This issue is opened from more than a year.
Is there something else to do to help maintainers to update to new version?
1.3 is absolutely obsolete.
Let me know.

Moreover it is a very important package nowadays. It is used by the majority of data science prototype projects.
Comment 129 Adam Wenocur 2022-03-10 15:33:46 UTC 
I'm currently bumping to version 2022.02.0+443.

It introduces a new library called Quarto. I think it may make sense to make Quarto its own package, building against the system Pandoc, but I'm not sure yet.

The initial working ebuild will have Quarto disabled, and use system Pandoc directly.

Does anyone have ideas about this?

Probably it is better to have an independent package of Quarto
https://quarto.org/
as it could be embedded even in other solution as Jupyter.

What about the server daemon? Will it work in your new release?
Thank you Adam
Comment 131 Adam Wenocur 2022-03-11 01:27:38 UTC 
I've pushed the commit to my personal overlay. I haven't tested the server yet with this version, but that's next. I'll deal with Quarto later, as it is intractable to create a separate ebuild for it; it's mostly Typescript and has no discernible self-contained build script.

I incorporated a patch from FreeBSD that allows RStudio to build against newer versions of yaml-cpp.
Comment 132 Adam Wenocur 2022-03-11 01:39:50 UTC 
Currently, I'm handling an inconsistency between the install path and search path for resources, resulting in a blank window when opening.
Comment 133 François Valenduc 2022-03-12 15:13:41 UTC 
I have tested the new ebuild and I find some problems. First, the patch rstudio- 2022.02.0.443-cmake-find_library.patch is missing. I managed to compile studio by replacing it by an older patch (rstudio-1.4.1106-soci-cmake-find_library.patch).
However, even the desktop app doesn't work at all. I only get a blank screen.
Could you check this and add the missing patch ?

I've added the missing patch, and am continuing to debug the config path problem that's resulting in a blank window upon launch.

Comment 136 Adam Wenocur 2022-03-25 05:10:50 UTC 
I now have version 2022.02.0+443 working about as well as 1.4.1717 was working in my personal overlay. There was some copying and pasting in the code base where it looks for resources and scripts. In addition, the version number itself changed formats, and it was crashing partially because the ebuild needed a fourth minor version number.

I plan on making it use Quarto next.

I then plan on adding the missing configs to make the server function.

The builds for RStudio in my personal overlay have used EAPI 7 for awhile. Are you referring to another ebuild that needs to be upgraded?

Specifically, is there another way rstudio should list dependencies now? Is there a JSON library that should be listed directly?

Have you checked the permissions? The ebuild directory should be readable by portage.

You're right, I don't know how but files directory didn't have the e(x)ecution authorisation for (g)roup and (o)ther.
Everything goes well. 
Thank you for your wonderful job.
When you'll have a server version to test I'm here.

OK; I can follow what you posted above; do you have a comprehensive list? I can start updating them in my personal overlay and work toward making them worthy of pull requests.
Comment 143 François Valenduc 2022-04-03 13:04:38 UTC 
I managed to get the server working with the following steps:

I took the CreateTables.sqilte form the github tree (it is in this directory: src/cpp/server/db) and copied it to /usr/db. This allows the server to start but it doesn't work yet.

I created 3 symbolic in /usr/share/rstudio/bin: r_ldpath, rserver-pam and rsession (all these files are in /usr/bin).

After that, I can login to rstudio server and run R code.

It worked as a charm for me.

I created rserver.conf in /etc/rstudio as in:

https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200552316-Configuring-RStudio-Workbench-RStudio-Server

but it ignores my configuration (even after restarting of course). 
In particular it doesn't bind to every IP but just on 127.0.0.1 (localhost)

I tried even to change the port to 80, but nothing changes. It answers always to 8787.

This is something that should be traceable in the C++ code; I've had to do the same for fixing hard-coded pathnames; isolating where it reads the config parameters should be no different.

I tried with command line:

# rserver --www-address 0.0.0.0  --www-port 80

and it works perfectly. So I think it is something easy to fix.

That's exactly what it being masked is for. But yes, I've asked some people a good few times.
Comment 160 Adam Wenocur 2022-08-19 13:09:31 UTC 
I may be qualified to maintain this package in the future; that will happen only once I have an updated version ready for a PR, with full Quarto support.

At this time, I'm still on the learning curve for builds including Quarto, and need the time to clean up other cruft in the builds linked from this thread.

Repurposing bug for restoration if/when an ebuild is done.
Comment 163 Neil 2022-08-22 19:49:11 UTC 
Its not compiling for source but for those who need (or just really, really want to use RStudio under Gentoo) what about coming up with an rstudio-bin based on the provided deb/Fedora/OpenSUSE binaries?

I use RStudio occasionally for work (under Arch) but wouldn't mind playing/exploring with it a bit more at home where I run Gentoo.

Comment 165 John Dough 2022-09-15 03:55:14 UTC 
This process is taking far too long to get this important package back into portage, so until we get a proper ebuild back into portage is it at least possible to adopt a binary build? Rstudio releases  debian and rpm binaries of the application. I know that it's not the Gentoo way but until we find a suitable replacement can we add the binary to portage? Doesn't gentoo have the ability to use rpms and or deb packages?

Comment 166 Neil 2022-09-15 21:11:50 UTC 
That is what I suggested two posts up, the post in response prior to yours suggests a working ebuild to compile from source is close.

If you are able to contribute to that (e.g. testing) great, if you want to write a rstudio-bin.ebuild you can do (I'm too busy with work/family to get stuck in and learn myself).

rstudio-2022.07.2.576.ebuild

I was working on trying to fix and bump rstudio when it was package masked. My dev machine, a first generation core i7, hung. I had to build another dev machine. I manage to compile it with no errors. Starting rstudio is briefly draws its workspace, then blanks the screen and hangs. There are over 94000 hits in google for rstudio blank screen linux. This happens with both wayland dwl and X11 xmonad. I have tried lots of things, I can not get it to work.

Qt was removed in rstudio development in Sep 2022:

  RStudio doesn't officially support the IDE on Arch Linux, nor do we contribute
  to or maintain the Arch Linux RStudio packages. So we may not be able to help
  here.

  That said, I noticed that these errors are coming from Qt, which we have
  recently removed. Would you be willing to try one of the daily builds to see
  if the problem still occurs?

Since Qt is removed from the rstudio repo I assume it is not really supported anymore. It would be difficult to package the electron build of rstudio. There is no mention of electron in the RStudio 2022.07.2+576 release notes, hence I assume that electron is experimental.

rstudio-2022.07.2.576 draws the screen with workspaces for a fraction of a second then hangs on both wayland gui-wm/dwl and X11 x11-wm/xmonad.
Comment 178 Maxim Fomin 2022-10-27 19:13:29 UTC 
If Qt is not supported and election is experimental, does it mean that RStudio GUI is essentially not supported on linux?

> Is there any chance to have this ebuild soon in portage?
Based on the earlier rstudio ebuilds and the work done in:

  rstudio bump to 1.4.1106 #19865
  https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/19865

I created the rstudio-2022.07.2.576.ebuild, with the intent to merge
#19865 and bump it to 2022.07.2.576. rstudio 2022.07.2.576 appears to be
the last version with support for Qt. As Qt was removed from rstudio
in September 2022:

  https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/12050
  "Crash on latest Rstudio startup with Arch-derivative Linux #12050
  Closed
  bshor opened this issue on Sep 29

  recently removed."

rstudio does not support building electron from the source code or using
a system installed version of electron:

  https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/9148
  "Support building to use system version of Electron #9148

  gtritchie commented on 14 Dec 2021
  Closing this; Electron is installed purely via npm/yarn, into the project tree
  just like any other npm-based package. So this issue doesn't really make
  sense."

This means that an electron binary is installed via npm/yarn. I can not fix
any security bugs or bugs in a binary.

There was brief glimmer of hope when a Tauri build of rstudio was added to the
Cherry Blossom rstudio milestone. As I believed I could build a Tauri build
of rstudio from the source code, there is good support in the cargo.eclass
for building Rust progams in Gentoo, where all the crates are added to
SRC_URI to build with FEATURES=network-sandbox, which is a requirement for
Gentoo.

However the Tauri build was then removed from the Cherry Blossom milestone
and the issue closed as completed, in reality it is rejected:

  Migrate RStudio from Electron to Tauri #12230
  https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/12230

In summary I assume:

There is no support from upstream for compiling with Qt 6 or Qt 5,
as Qt is removed from the rstudio source code.

There is no support from upstream for compiling electron from the
source code, using the system electron, or compiling or running rstudio
on anything other than the rstudio supported Linux distributions:

https://posit.co/about/platform-support/#linux

There is no intention from upstream to migrate rstudio from Electron to
Tauri.

rstudio has always been an extremely difficult ebuild to maintain on Gentoo.
Upstream's decision to make rstudio an electron app makes it even more
difficult.

If I managed to patch rstudio to compile with Qt 6 this might fix the
current problem: rstudio-2022.07.2.576 draws the screen with workspaces
for a fraction of a second then hangs on both wayland gui-wm/dwl and
X11 x11-wm/xmonad. My theory is this a problem in
dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.15.5_p20220618

But then I could not upstream the Qt 6 patch as upstream have removed
support for Qt. The Gentoo rstudio version could never be updated,
as it is too difficult, and no support from upstream, to build the
rstudio electron version from the source code.
Comment 186 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-11-29 06:38:10 UTC 
Thanks for the summary. That's really unfortunate (and not very considerate of them :(. What about a binary package?
Comment 187 Silvio 2022-11-29 21:12:21 UTC 
Is seems to me that for Electron there is the source code
https://github.com/electron/electron

And rstudio explains how to compile with Electron:
https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/wiki/Electron-Desktop

but I'm not an Expert.

However for me rstudio-2022.07.2.576 works fine, so why we cannot put it on portage?

Because it's not *just* Electron and it has dependencies in node which you can't easily get while sandboxed. As for that version: because it's out of date and then we'll be in the same situation again.

rstudio-2022.07.2.576-qtwebengine-5.15.7_p20221122-stack-trace.txt

This is the stack trace from rstudio-2022.07.2.576 rstudio --single-process crashing on startup with dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.15.7_p20221122. The --single-process just makes it easier to obtain the stack trace. Without it, the qtwebengine process crashes and the rstudio process hangs. This occurs on both X11 and wayland. This stack trace is on X11 under xmonad, its the same on wayland under gui-wm/dwl from the guru overlay.

rstudio-2022.07.2.576 rstudio runs and seems to work with dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.15.7_p20221122 compiled with the debug USE flag. I do not know how to obtain the qtwebengine debug trace. There is a DCHECK on the line above the crash:

  for (wtf_size_t i = 0; i < cancel_running_animation_flags.size(); i++) {
    if (cancel_running_animation_flags[i]) {
      DCHECK(css_animations && !is_animation_style_change);
      update.CancelAnimation(
          i, *css_animations->running_animations_[i]->animation);
    }
  }

The attached stack trace is from the qtwebengine ebuild hacked to compile release mode with -g2 debug symbols.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Electron
"Despite being open-source, electron is not in the official repositories of Fedora"

With no electron in Fedora, I wonder what they will do with the electron rstudio.

I prefer to build it from the source code, at least then it is possible to obtain a stack trace.

For those who are tired of waiting for the return of rstudio in portage, just use the jgenco repository (see comment #147). The latest version is available (2022.12.0-353) and work for both desktop (with electron) and server.

Procedure in short:

1) Create destination dir in the repos directory:

es: 
# mkdir /var/db/repos/jgenco


2) Add repository to your list

# eselect repository add jgenco git https://github.com/jgenco/jgenco-overlay


3) Sync repository:

# emaint sync -r jgenco


4) Install rstudio

# emerge rstudio

Indeed, works for me too. Only it kicked out my mariadb and force install of mysql. Here are the last bunch of packages I had to install, documenting the removal of mariadb for some reason:

Nevertheless, the sci-mathematics/rstudio-2022.12.0.353::jgenco GUI works for me. Thanks for the tip.
Comment 194 John Dough 2023-06-21 17:36:17 UTC 
Is there any effort to add rstudio back into portage. I try not to use anything not in portage including overlays on my system. Rstudio has been in portage for years until the application was removed. I would like to see it added back into portage.
Comment 195 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2023-06-24 17:33:44 UTC 
I guess the best solution could be to see if jgenco wants to proxy maintain the package :/
