To Reproduce

This should be open/accessible but please let me know if you don't have access (its an open repo in a private organisation). Essentially our package is dependent on glmmTMB -> lme4 -> nloptr however it looks like the current highest version of nloptr available on cran-windows as a binary. That is for our windows build,r-lib/actions/setup-r-dependencies tries to install this binary package and fails with the above error. Looking at stackoverflow I found this which suggests that you need to run some additional Rtools commands to ensure the nlopt library is available though I couldn't see any options in the existing action to do this :(
Expected behavior
I would have expected r-lib/actions/setup-r-dependencies to have installed the nlopt dependency and then installed nloptr without erroring
Additional context
None
Please let me know if you need any more information
