Package built from source to a PC with no internet connection

Start with the reported renv::install calls, the copied xgboost.zip, and the package library built from XGBoost 2.0.3.1 on Windows. Determine whether renv supports transferring this package for offline restore or install, and document the supported workflow or the needed change; done means the copied version can be used by renv on the offline PC.

Goal: get a specific version of XGBoost onto a computer with no internet, and installable via renv. This is a bit of an edge case so I understand if there's no current solution. I have built XGBoost v.2.0.3.1 from source following their directions . Thus, I have a library folder with xgboost installed there. It was built rather than installed manually because building from source results in a package around 7MB instead of the ~130MB version that results from renv::install("https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/xgboost-nightly-builds/release_2.0.0/xgboost_r_gpu_win64_82d846bbeb83c652a0b1dff0e3519e67569c4a3d.tar.gz") (link comes from here).

What can I do so that I could copy this XGBoost version to the other PC that has no internet, and be able to run renv::restore or install for new projects there?

I have attempted zipping the xgboost folder into .zip archive, copying that to my cellar, and running

renv::install(r"[path\to\xgboost.zip]")
renv::install("xgboost@2.0.3")
renv::install("xgboost@2.0.3.1")
# all return
