Github Action failing: Process completed with exit code 1 when installing system dependencies for R-CMD-Check

I am trying to run the use_github_action_check_standard() command from the usethis R package to check my package on every push on GitHub Actions.

The test works without a problem on Windows and MacOS, but for both Linux versions my workflow code fails before it even gets to the package code.

It fails when it tries to install the system dependencies where it gives me the error ##[error]Process completed with exit code 1.

When I look at the raw logs (below), I notice the line: Cache not found for input keys: Linux-287c850eb370edd647ed85b6fac18cbaee02effa7d01b981304dce84a452b22c-1-, Linux--1-. But I'm afraid I don't understand that error. Also I don't think this is it, because the key appears in the group above (notice the ##[endgroup]) already but the error only appears in the next group (as on the Screenshot).

Any ideas? Many thanks!

I also post my entire workflow code below.

I can't help but notice the workflow says at the top: "For help debugging build failures open an issue on the RStudio community with the 'github-actions' tag. community.rstudio.com/…" You might want to try asking for help there first. – Apogeotropism

I figured it out in the end but will leave this here, as it might be useful for someone else!

The error was associated with the R code that was in the command, so if this occurs to you as well, focus in on the R-part of your code rather than on the workflow code.

run: |
   while read -r cmd
        do
          eval sudo $cmd
        done < <(Rscript -e 'cat(remotes::system_requirements("ubuntu", "20.04"), sep = "\n")')

My package was in the sub-directory myfunctionname of my GitHub account, as I have specified in the working directory above:

defaults:
      run:
        working-directory: myfunctionname

This meant that the R function remotes::system_requirements("ubuntu", "20.04") could not find a package in the specified folder. Once I had added the information simply through: remotes::system_requirements("ubuntu", "20.04","myfunctionname") everything worked.
