When I try to run this repository I get as far as a chun in 01-SPI-data_prep.Rmd that depends on the povcalnetR package. However, that package appears to no longer work:

> library(povcalnetR)
> povcalnet(country = "ALB")
Rows: 2807 Columns: 1                                                                                                                                                                  
── Column specification ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Delimiter: ","
chr (1): <!DOCTYPE html>Use `spec()` to retrieve the full column specification for this data.Specify the column types or set `show_col_types = FALSE` to quiet this message.
Error: assert_that: assertion must return a logical value
In addition: Warning message:
One or more parsing issues, call `problems()` on your data frame for details, e.g.:
  dat <- vroom(...)
  problems(dat) 

A visit to the povcalnetR GitHub page shows it to have recently been archived and locked so I don't see how to report this to the maintainer. I'm a bit surprised it hasn't been dumped from CRAN yet.

This is running without activating renv. If I try to activate renv I hit other problems - #10. But the povcalnetR issue I think is not related.
