I am using a windows laptop, R 3.2.2
I am using R-gui.
When I go to Packages -> Update packages and then select a Cran mirror
(in the US) - it tells me to update the following packages:
GLMMGibbs
RDCOMClient
Rstem
survnnet
yags
I click OK and then I get successful update messages, like:

package ‘survnnet’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
package ‘yags’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Then I to to Packages -> Update packages, and exactly the same
packages as before appear - as if I didn't just update them.
What could be the reason? I tried to totally delete the folders of
those packages, install them from scratch (successfully), still - they
keep appearing in Update Pacakges widnow.
Any advice?
It may be installing them to a personal library rather than the system
one (to which you typically don't have write permission).
You should be getting messages about this, but they might be hidden; if
you run
update.packages()
it might be easier to see the messages. You can also try running
.libPaths() to see what libraries are searched.
