I'm running Linux Ubuntu and tried to update my packages using the update.package() command. It appeared to download the updates ok but I got the following message:
The downloaded packages are in ‘/tmp/RtmpFM82Ry/downloaded_packages’ Warning in install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, contriburl = contriburl, : 'lib = "/usr/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable Error in install.packages(update[instlib == l, "Package"], l, contriburl = contriburl, : unable to install packages Calls: update.packages -> install.packages What does this mean ? And more importantly, how do I address it ? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/package-update-tp3164690p3164690.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
