install seurat 4.0.3

Good afternoon,

I am trying to install Seurat 4.0.3, but I have been unsuccessful.

I attempted to use the install.packages() function, but it only installed version 4.3.0 of Seurat.

Then, I tried using remotes::install_version("Seurat", version = "4.0.3"), but it only installed version 3.2.0 of Seurat.

I am wondering how I can install Seurat 4.0.3.

Thank you very much,
Andy

I used these two line command to install the Seurat, but I got following:

The usual mess with these super dependency-heavy packages (rolleyes). spatstat.core apparently has been archived from cran. Try remotes::install_github("cran/spatstat.core") Then repeat Seurat. Why not just using the latest Seurat version anyway, that seems to work as you say?

Thank you! The problem has been solved, but I cannot use the latest one as I need to be in line with other lab members.
