I would appreciate getting a clarification of /usr/lib/R/library vs
/usr/local/lib/R/site-library. I am running R 1.8 on Debian Linux. On one occasion
doing update.packages() resulted in versions of one or more libraries being placed in
one of these directories without removing the old version, and the old version took
precedence over the new. I'm sorry I did not save the steps I used. I would
appreciate reading how best to manage libraries. Currently I have the following in
/usr/local/lib/R/site-library: Design, Hmisc, Rcmdr, acepack, car. /usr/lib/R/library
contains the following:
KernSmooth boot eda lqs modreg nnet stepfun ts
MASS class foreign methods mva rpart survival
R.css cluster grid mgcv nlme spatial tcltk
base ctest lattice mle nls splines tools
Thanks -Frank
