Hi, I am running Debian Sid. I am having trouble with the R packages. Executing 'help()' or 'demo()' launches 'most' with no text. 'help.start()' works properly. When I try to install a package, I get the following problem: *********************************************************************

The user has read and write permissions on '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library' I don't know what to do here. Can someone advise?
