The error says unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.1/Resources/library/openssl/libs/openssl.so':
so it's having trouble loading the openssl R package. There are installation instructions for this package at https://github.com/jeroen/openssl#readme (I found this from the CRAN package landing page https://cran.r-project.org/package=openssl 'URL' field) There it says that to install on macOS you need to brew install openssl In general the strategy is to start at the first ERROR that occurs, and carefully try to 'decode' what it is trying to tell you. The problem you are running into is that the 'release' version of macOS CRAN packages are generally available as pre-built 'binary' packages, so you don't have to do anything special to make them work. The 'devel' version of macOS CRAN packages are not available for binary installation, so you have to have additional system dependencies like libgit2 and openssl also installed.

I managed to get libgit2 installed. But having trouble with its other dependencies - ‘gert’ Please see attached txt which is a full information of the error. Do you have an installation of R 4.1 that is more stable where devtools is working ? If yes, are you able to share that with me ?
