[Rd] Error message using Packages | Install | Cancel
If we click on the Cancel button after the Packages | Install menu items in Windows 2.1.1 (dated 2005-06-23) it gives an error message. There really should be no error here since we intended not to install anything -- that is why we pressed Cancel. This is what appears on the console:> utils:::menuInstallPkgs()Error in install.packages(NULL, .libPaths()[1], dependencies = TRUE, type = type) : no packages were specified
