R session stucked when retrieving data for certain countries

[mynanshan]

I am using povcalnetR to get the poverty headcounts for each country in a loop. However, the loop always gets stuck at some point such that I have to force shut down my R software. After checking the code, I found that certain countries caused the problem, e.g.:

library(povcalnetR)
povcalnet(
    country = "SUR", povline = 1.9, year = 2010:2021
  )

If country="all", the code works fine, and the retrieved data will not contain information for the problematic country "SUR". It seems that if a country is not in the database, the data retrieval for that individual country will raise a bug.

Other information:

• System: Windows 10
• R version: 4.1.1
• povcalnetR_0.1.1
