Failed to install vroom for centos-7 os

[Longfei2]

Dear author,
I encountered an error when installing vroom.

I found this reason that ``vroom_1.6.5.tar.gz-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-centos-7-4.2.1` doesn't be downloaded.

Could you please help me see this issue?

A download error may happen if you have issues with your network, or the CRAN mirror may have issues.

If the issues persists, try using a different mirror.

Can you download and install other packages?

Hello，
Thank you for your information. But I can use install.packages to install vroom. This confuses me a lot

Can you download and install other packages?

What are your repos? I.e. the output of getOption("repos")?

Did you try a different mirror?

Are you behind a proxy?

Hello,
I have installed vroom via different mirrors. However, it is failure.
I can use pak to install other packages, and also install vroom via install.packages successfully.

Actually， I can't understand this reason.

It's too weird！

Hello，
This issue is resolved after clearing all cached file. But I remove all files in .cache/R/pgkcache manually.
I wonder if there are options or automatical methods for pak to help users clear these cached files?

pak::cache_clean()
pak::meta_clean()
