title: Error installing package "lifecycle" (while trying to install ggplot 3.3.0, R 3.5.3)
body: <p>I am using <code>R: 3.5.3 on Windows</code></p>
  
  <p>I want to install <code>ggplot2</code> (current version 3.3.0). It seems that the package <code>ggplot2</code> needs another package <code>lifecycle</code>, which I cannot successfully install due to errors.
  I've tried to install <code>ggplot2</code> with all dependencies and also tried to install <code>lifecycle</code> separately and always got the same error. </p>
  
  <p>Here is the anonymized output (in German):</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; install.packages("lifecycle", dependencies = FALSE)

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>as far as I understand, the <code>Rd warning</code> are not critically but then somehow the actual directory seems to be missing.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried to download the binaries and copy the package <code>lifecycle</code> in my <code>R/win-library/3.5</code> but this leads to just another error</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; library("lifecycle", lib.loc="‘USERID/R/win-library/3.5")
  Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘lifecycle’ in rbind(info, getNamespaceInfo(env, "S3methods")):
   number of columns of matrices must match (see arg 2)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any ideas to resolve this or does anyone have a similar problem? </p>
