Hi Stephen, I just happened to have upgraded my R today. Tips: 1) Make sure the folder has full permissions so that you'll be able to install/update packages on it. 2) I still find the advices (and code) I gave in that article to be worthwhile. And do pay attention to the directory into which you want to install the packages.
