No, because it checks if they are already installed *as I said*.
Perhaps section 2.8 of the Window

I've been in the habit of keeping all the .t
Brian,
Since the problem was fixed by updating packages with checkBuilt=T, wouldn't
installing packages fresh using the script have avoided the problem?
Perhaps section 2.8 of the Windows FAQ should be incorporated into the Mac
FAQ? The checkBuilt trick is otherwise not brought to our attention.
Well, that's a bit convoluted way (I really don't see the point of that
"script") - if you want to re-install packages across R versions (not the topic
of this thread!) it is far easier than that and I posted it here just a few
days ago:
# for packages from user location:
install.packages(row.n
Simon,
That's a better way, indeed. I had missed your previous post, so thank you
for reposting. My original motivation for the script was to sync certain
"core" packages across multiple machines, but it works well for upgrades,
too. The script also provides a means of weeding out my library by no
It's really odd that people blog about their own inefficient scripts
rather than read the R documentation.
Because this scripts checks (very inefficiently) if a package is
already installed, it would not solve the problem discussed in this
thread. And install.packages() takes a vector of pack
There's a handy script to automate the update process that I came across
some time ago at

When you run the script, it will automatically install the libraries that
you set up in the script. When you run

Thanks Brian and Simon for the suggestions.
update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE)
fixed the load problem and all the functions I was using in R 2.12 are running
identically in R 2.13.0.
For future reference, when I update to a new version of R, is it good practice
to:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Framewor
