Hi, I have Debian Testing running on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (2015, 3rd gen.). I would like to have a package library independent of the installed R version. Under Ubuntu, I used to have the following line in ~/.Renviron: R_LIBS=/usr/local/R/library:/usr/lib/R/site-library This worked fine and /usr/local/R/library showed up in .libPaths().
However, under Debian (with the same ~/.Renviron), my .libPaths() just shows "/usr/local/R/R-3.1.3-build/library" which is the version-dependent library (this used to come at 3rd position in .libPaths()). Does R on Debian not look for ~/.Renviron? I also tried R_LIBS_USER but no luck here either (although, as far as I understand Section 6.2 of "R Installation and Administration", R_LIBS or R_LIBS_USER should work (?)) Cheers, Marius PS: I found two sites which seem to be related, but it was still not quite clear to me how to approach the problem: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-debian/2005-December/000050.html https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-debian/2010-May/001146.html _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Debian mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian
