Can't install package 'Liszt' (not in CRAN) in R 3.6.3

I want to install a package that is not found in CRAN.

Below is a downloadlink to the package. The package makes use of JAGS, of which i have the 64 bit 4.3.0 version of. rjags and r2jags packages are installed. Rtools is connected to the pathway. I checked this using 

Sys.which("make")
## "C:\\rtools40\\usr\\bin\\make.exe"

Connection to path was done with devtools from this Stacklink:
How to add Rtools\bin to the system path in R

I use the following code to install the downloaded .tar.gz package:

install.packages("C:/Program Files/R/R-3.6.3/Liszt_0.8-5_1.tar.gz", repos=NULL,
                 type="source")

The package won't installl, instead i get the following error:

* installing *source* package 'Liszt' ...

I installed the 64 Bit version of JAGS. Appearently, the package needs both the 32 and the 64 bit version installed on the PC to be able to work. After i installed also the 32 bit version of JAGS, package installed with no problem.
