Good day, Could .libPaths gain an option to ignore all values other than the user-specified new parameter? Currently, it takes the union of new and .Library and .Library.site and there is no way to turn it off. For quick and convenient troubleshooting that doesn't involve requiring the editing of configuration files, it would be nice to be able to run .libPaths(.libPaths()[1], ignoreSiteFiles = TRUE) to limit to only one folder of R packages.
