Error message library()

Dear all,
When one tries to load a non-installed package you get the error:
Error in library(xyz) : there is no package called 'xyz'
I noticed on several occasions that this puzzles beginners. Therefore
I suggest to change the error description in:
Error in library(xyz) : there is no package called 'xyz' installed on
this machine. Check the name of the package or use
install.packages("xyz") to install it.
Couldn't R even directly ask for installing if it exists on CRAN? Like: Error in library(xyz) : package 'xyz' is not installed on this machine. Do you want to install it? [Y/n] Regards
