Hi, When I install a package as a non-root user, it gets saved in a path such as
~/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/3.4 for any R version 3.4.x. Thus, if I want to install the packages somewhere else, as root say, I might do install.packages("somepackage","/some/where/else/R/site-library/3.4") In this case I would then want to construct the appropriate path in, say, /etc/Rprofile to allow the packages to be found. However, using R.Version() gives me > R.Version()$minor [1] "4.3" I can obviously extract the "real" minor version from the string, but shouldn't there be a more straightforward way to obtain the part of the version that is used in .libPaths() by default? Or am I misunderstanding something?
