Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/fractal/fractal_2.0-4.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "fractal_2.0-4.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (2.0-4) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
