In most case it is the first warning or error that is most meaningful, but in this case it is the last one. The `installed.packages` function can tell you which packages are in the Bases" category: plic <- installed.packages( .Library, priority = "base")
rownames(plic)
[1] "base" "compiler" "datasets" "graphics" "grDevices" "grid" "methods" [8] "parallel" "splines" "stats" "stats4" "tcltk" "tools" "utils" Updating them requires updating your R version, which is what you should do now.
