Hello!

I have a wish/proposal.

Is it possible to include some option in install.packages() for
Delete downloaded files (y/N)? at the end of that process. It can
be quite anoying if you must install several packages and wait
meanwhile to type y/n for each package separately.

It does happen at the end of the process: you are using one call for the several packages? Something like install.packages(c("pkg1, "pkg2", "pkg3"))?


In R-devel you are not asked at all, and even now you will not be asked if you specify destdir.
