Newest version of lidR:: readLas is crashing R, even for the las files that are smaller than 50Kb (files aren't corrupt). I can read them in CloudCompare, python but not in lidR? The error message I got was An irrecoverable exception occurred. R is aborting now *** caught segfault *** address (nil), cause 'memory not mapped'`
I can send one such file for your testing.
