So I fixed it by installing conda. However I couldn't install deeptols in the base environment and therefore had to create a new one. But now R always uses the base environment and therefore can't find deeptools. How can I solve this problem? Running the R-script directly in the terminal with Rscript works fine, but RStudio doesn't work.

Probably you need to set the R path in RStudio.
