RStudio desktop working on Raptor's power computer (ppc64le)?

[FlyingBlackbird]

I am using the statistical programming language R (which is available for ppc64le as ready-to-use package) a lot for data management and analytics
but the development IDE RStudio Desktop (https://rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download) is still not available.

Could anybody compile RStudio successfully on ppc64le?

BTW: RStudio Server seems to be available (I did not test it so far) but "only" dockerized:

I just found this, don't know if it works.

URGENT REQUEST:

Since my Blackbird is defective and the RMA procedure is ongoing I am looking for a Power9 user to test an bug fix of a docker container which runs RStudio.

It would be great if someone could test the bug fix and post the results here (or in the github issue):

https://github.com/ppc64le/build-scripts/issues/131

The test is not much work, just installing (building) a docker container, starting an image and trying to start RStudio. Thats all:

https://github.com/ppc64le/build-scripts/tree/master/rstudio/Dockerfiles/v1.2.1335

THX :-)

Bump: It would be really great if if someone could do the simple test to be able to close the issue soon :-)

Did you have any luck with RStudio?

I also use both R and RStudio and I'm likely to try it in on this platform very shortly

I had no time so far to re-assemble my new workstation with the new planar :-(
So I still need some more time to test RStudio (Server)... (the bug was fixed BTW)

RStudio requires qtwebengine

qtwebengine doesn't currently build for ppc64el, it may be waiting for patches in Chromium upstream
