Subject: update MASS
I'd like to update MASS from version 7.2-11 to version 7-2.19. I am
running R 2.0.1 on ubuntu, that installs MASS with the package r-cran-vr.
I have tried doing update.packages(), and I get a list of packages that
I could update, but none is called MASS.
I have tried the following too, right after launching emacs, but to no
avail.

I have the package installed in /usr/lib/R/library/MASS. I can do
<QUOTE>

[1] ".GlobalEnv" "package:MASS" "package:methods"
[4] "package:stats" "package:graphics" "package:grDevices"
[7] "package:utils" "package:datasets" "Autoloads"
[10] "package:base"
</QUOTE>
How could I update the package?
Thanks,
