Error in rule plot_heatmap: loading ggplot2 causes error

[sreichl]

• @burtonjake added and tested the generation of an empty ggplot with error message to handle the exception case of empty input data
• this worked for me and other recent users of the version
• in two different projects it started to break for me, with the following error when trying to load the library

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’ in readRDS(ffile):
 error reading from connection

• naturally, I
  • checked if it is installed -> yes:r-ggplot2 3.4.2
  • removed it to force reinstallation (maybe conda env got corrupted)

neither resolved the issue.

Can any of use check if this is user specific (ie my conda is in general corrupted and I have to find a way to "purge" this ggplot version from my system) or this also happens to you (now, all of a sudden) @burtonjake and @bednarsky. Please use the current version v3.0.5.

PS: If you know how to purge/update a software version across all environments, please let me know and I can try that first. Other ideas are welcome.

PS: I have already cleaned my conda cache completely as well...

For me, it just ran without this issue (using the module as in the recipe, i.e., snakefile: github("epigen/spilterlize_integrate", path="workflow/Snakefile", tag="v3.0.5")
