When I tried to install a package, it automatically halted.

Since the error here is coming from building vignettes, you can easily skip that part with:

install_github("cboettig/knitcitations", quick=TRUE)

Or:

install_github("cboettig/knitcitations", build_vignettes=FALSE)

See ? install for details.
