Out of curiosity, do you have a problem calling `library(ggplot2)` from the R prompt (after R is finished "spinning up")?
I vaguely recall (~ 2 years ago) that I was trying to load some packages in my ~/.Rprofile since I thought I always wanted them in R anyway and had problems ... I've given up trying to do that, though :-) So -- doesn't answer your question, but if you have number of libraries you want to load up, but it's a pain to call individual `library()` calls, maybe you can define a .setup() function in your ~/.Rprofile that does all these library calls for you when you come to a point in your (interactive) work that you think you need them. -steve On Sat, Apr 16, 2011 at 2:47 PM, stephen sefick <ssef...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have just upgraded to R 2.13 and have library(ggplot2) in my > .Rprofile (among other things). when i start R I get an error > message.
