Yes, that's exactly what I was meaning. IMO, only R INSTALL dse should change the global packages file, because only the we have guarantee that a user can actually access the installed packages (anything installed somewhere else might belong to somebody different etc.). So R INSTALL -l rlibs dse shouldn't modify the global packages file, as a new one conforming to the current .lib.loc get's built anyway when running help.start(). Any objections if I commit that change? .f -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
