I have been using read_excel for years... suddenly today I have this
problem:
> T1 <- read_excel(fname,sheet="T1")
Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]])
:
there is no package called ‘lifecycle’
So I install lifecycle:
install.packages("lifecycle")
WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages but is not currently

Did it work?
Try it again:
> T1 <- read_excel(fname,sheet="T1")
Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]])
:
there is no package called ‘lifecycle’
I am clueless: what am I doing wrong?
Can anyone help?
