Hi All:
If I remember correctly how R release numbers work, R 3.5.0 would mean best practice would be to re-install all packages, is this correct? The Mac version has had a mechanism that does helps automate this process, but I have a few questions as to how this works. Specifically:
1. In looking for packages to re-install, does it look just in the /LIbrary/Frameworks/R location for packages, or does it look in ~/username/Library/R also?
2. If it does look at both locations, does the re-install then put everything into /LIbrary/Frameworks/R or is present location maintained?
I ask because I have a lot of packages in ~/username/Library/R and want to maintain things that way, so I want to be certain that I know what will happen fi I use the built-in mechanism.
Thanks,
-Roy
