I guess you need to specify the lib directory https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/utils/html/ install.packages.html
"lib character vector giving the library directories where to install the packages. Recycled as needed. If missing, defaults to the first element of .libPaths <https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/libPaths.html>()" https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/libPaths.html Check sys.glob! https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/Sys.glob.html Try Sys.getenv (). Hope this helps.
