In both new (dummy) packages and mature packages with renv already initialized, renv fails on install.packages() and restore().
Note: to avoid tripping the spam filter, I've replaced all instances of 'https://' with 'web.'
Failure on install.packages(), with, e.g., dplyr:
> install.packages("dplyr")

The links which were failing were cran snapshots with no corresponding url. Explicitly pointing to the CRAN repo by running restore(repos="https://cloud.r-project.org") solved this issue.
This issue was solved thanks to @nirgrahamuk in the community.rstudio forum (for those interested in the original answer, see here).
