Hi,
I have previously and recently used WGCNA. I updated R to 3.6.2 and the installation of WGCNA is required and not working.
install.packages("WGCNA")
which gives me this response:
Package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of C/C++/Fortran: ‘WGCNA’
Do you want to attempt to install these from sources? (Yes/no/cancel) Yes

Any help or suggestions is appreciated.
Thank you for your time, devarora, here is my attempt at your suggestion:

When such error occurs to me I just manually install the libraries first which are not available. For instance here "dependencies ‘org.Hs.eg.db’, ‘org.Mm.eg.db’, ‘minet’ are not available also installing the dependencies ‘infotheo’, ‘entropy’". Most of the time it works. You could also give a try. Try installing these first and then WGCNA hope this work well.
I have not experienced this but recently I saw somewhere posted in these situation where: Package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of C/C++/Fortran: ‘WGCNA’ Do you want to attempt to install these from sources? Proceed with "no" and installation was successful.
