I had this same issue, and @mahrud helped me fix it.

In terminal:

git clone https://github.com/gerrymandr/mandeR.git
cd mandeR

git submodule init
git submodule update

cd ..
tar czf mandeR.tar.gz mandeR

Then in R:

wd="" ## change to where you have mandeR.tar.gz
setwd(wd)

install.packages("mander.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source")

Documented in #2.

This was probably due to an out-of-date compactnesslib.

I've now modified things to take the newest version. Unfortunately, this has introduced a Boost dependency. I haven't tried installing on other machines, yet.
