Dear support,
Because I only have OSX and there is this scary warning about it in
the documentation for r.install_packages (which incidentally the test
for it has no "s", but I don't know if that matters), I was trying to
load one on the sagenb site.  Probably this is a gross violation of
bandwidth or something, but anyway the surprise result under the R
interface was

install_packages(MASS)
Error: could not find function "install_packages"

which was surprising since tab-completion was how I found this
function in the first place.  I also got this in the Sage interface
with r.install_packages.

If anyone knows how I might do this, or if it's not good to do, or
whether my Mac will actually allow me to install the optional package
after all, OR whether Sage actually includes these by default (which
doesn't seem to be the case, but I might have typed something wrong),
I would greatly appreciate any information you might have.

Thanks!
