Describe the bug
I'm currently unable to use the setup-r action on macos-13 runners. It fails at the "Downloading macOS utils" step with the error:
Error: Failed to get R devel: Failed to get R 4.4.0: Failed to install qpdf: Error: The process '/usr/local/bin/brew' failed with exit code 1
To Reproduce
A link to a failed run of the action can be found at: https://github.com/grimbough/test-workflow/actions/runs/8358075235/job/22878572700
The fairly minimal workflow file is:
on:
workflow_dispatch:
name: Quick tests of setup-r action
env:
GITHUB_PAT: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
jobs:
testing:
name: Test setup-r action
runs-on: macos-13
steps:
- name: Setup R
uses: r-lib/actions/setup-r@v2Expected behavior
The action seems to work fine on the GitHub runners using other MacOS version and it's be great to restore that behaviour on macos-13.
Additional context
I've noticed that the GitHub runner macos-13 base image has changed a bit recently e.g. there's no existing installation of R on there any more (actions/runner-images@7535fb5). Perhaps those recent changes are releated to this issue.
