Hi everyone, Two minor points about ?.Renviron. 1) If R_ENVIRON is not set then R defaults to `${R_HOME}/etc/Renviron', not `${R_HOME}/etc/Renviron.site' as stated. 2) In the details, there is a missing "way" in "`value' is processed in a similar to a Unix shell." Cheers, Jonathan. --please do not edit the in...

Hello, Could someone please tell me why the following doesn't work: I have a file C:\Program Files\R\rw1051\etc\Renviron.site, which contains the line: R_LIBS= "C:/Jim/LocalR-Libraries/FromCran"; "C:/Jim/LocalR-Libraries/Cantata" >From the documentation, I gather that I have put this file in the default location, but to be safe I also explicitly set the R_ENVIRON environment variable. Now I...

[RFC = Request for Comments] { Yes, the documentation for .Renviron is really not there (but the FAQ...); the rest is in ?Startup } In R's Startup (on Unix only??) {unless --no-environ is specified} ~/.Renviron (if there) is read as an 'sh' script before R is called, then R looks ((for the site-wide Rprofile and then)) for .Rprofile in the current...

Hi, I have Debian Testing running on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (2015, 3rd gen.). I would like to have a package library independent of the installed R version. Under Ubuntu, I used to have the following line in ~/.Renviron: R_LIBS=/usr/local/R/library:/usr/lib/R/site-library This worked fine and /usr/local/R/library showed up in .libPaths(). However, under Debian (with the same ~/.Renviron), my .libPaths() just shows "/usr/local/R/R-3.1.3-build/library" which is the version-dependent library (this used to...

ISSUE: It looks like Rgui.exe never processes ~/.Renviron - only ./.Renviron. REPRODUCIBLE EXAMPLE: On Windows, create the following ~/.Renviron and ~/.Rprofile files: C:\Users\alice> Rscript -e "cat('FOO=123\n', file='~/.Renviron')" C:\Users\alice> Rscript -e "cat('print(Sys.getenv(\'FOO\'))', file=&...

...d my regexp didn't notice. Does anybody use this, or is it ok if I simply disable this in Debian? In that case we simply do what everybody else does, so you all get to live by the 'letter' setting that comes from my compile-time choice. It is easy enough to override either in /etc/R/Renviron or in ~/.Renviron. Opinions either way? Let me know. For now, I intend to simply comment this out in the next release (presumably a rc for 2.4.1). Thanks, Dirk -- Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something. -- Thom...

...e installation of R. I have gone through the ?R Installation and Administration? manual. But some of the stuff is not clear to me and I would like to get clarifications on the following points (for a Windows installation with R_HOME=C:\\R\\R-2.9.1 ) : 1. I understand that I need to create a file, .Renviron with the following path : R_HOME\\etc\\.Renviron where a number of environmental variables can be set. I would first like to know if the file to be created is Renviron or .Renviron. Both versions are mentioned in the manual. By the way, many functions in R start with a period. Is there any special...

dear dirk, i am following up on our thread on r-help-mailinglist. you advised me to bring it over here. when installing packages from within R, they usually go to a directory defined in R_LIBS_USER, which i have it set in .Renviron. when installing packages via sudo apt install r-cran-.., they go to /usr/lib/R/site-library. is there a possibility to have packages installed to the R_LIBS-USER directory by using the second possibility? dirk, you pointed me to the comments in Renviron.site: i tried to set R_LIBS_USER in Renvi...

...and have communicated with the package maintainer at RedHat Tom Callaway (see far below). Here is the question: Where does R Core Team want packagers to fiddle around with R library paths? Currently, the RPM Spec file used for EPEL's R (For Fedora/Redhat/Centos,etc) adds a line in R_HOME/etc/Renviron like this: R_LIBS=${R_LIBS-'"'%{_libdir}/R/library:%{_datadir}/R/library'"'}' Setting R_LIBS has some bad effects. It seems to block R_LIBS_USER, so users who try to install packages are not invited to install them in ~/R/i386... as they are invited to do on Ubuntu....

This is a follow-up to a question I asked a few years back. We have a pair of computers that share a common home directory (and therefor a common .Renviron) with identical hardware, but very different sets of libraries such that using a "shared" R_LIBS between two computers does not work. They both use this as the default library for user installations: '~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.13' I would like to mod the .Renviron in su...

...b has a lot of different unix boxes, with different hardware, and I'm assuming (perhaps wrongly) that by setting a per-user package installation directory, the packages will only work on one type of hardware. Our systems are all set up to share the same home directory (and, thus, the same .Renviron file) -- so, is there a way to set, in the .Renviron file, per-computer or per-hardware settings? The idea is to have a different package installation directory for each computer (e.g. "~/R/computer1/packages" and "~/R/computer2/packages". Thoughts? Ideas? Thanks! --j -...

Regarding user's home and working directories, is Rprofile just an old name of Renviron? or (can) should we have both files with different type of definitions? (talking about R.1.4.0 in linux).

I recently took "." off my PATH for security reasons and now find that R does not work in my home directory where the .Renviron file resides. The fix is simple. In the R shell startup section replace ". .Renviron" by ". ./.Renviron". The relevant section is: # Startup if ${USE_R_ENVIRON}; then # use the one in current dir, or default if [ -r .Renviron ] then . ./.Renviron # <<-- change...

...that I use, after installing R 3.0.1, I noticed that the installation of some packages that query R about its configuration did not succeed. The problem is exemplified by: berwin at bossiaea:~$ R-3.0.1 CMD config CC /opt/R/R-3.0.1/lib/R/bin/config: 222: .: Can't open /opt/R/R-3.0.1/lib/R/etc/Renviron Prior to R 3.0.1 such commands worked fine: berwin at bossiaea:~$ R-3.0.0 CMD config CC gcc -std=gnu99 I noticed now that my installations of the development and patched version of R have the same problem (since I usually do not install packages in those versions that query the configuration, I...

...ms. 1) When I use help.start() netscape comes up OK and all links are accessible except "Search Engine & Keywords" : search doesn't work and the keywords from base doesn't respond either. ?command within R gets netscape running and works OK. 2) I haven't been able to get Renviron.site, Rprofile.site, .Renviron, and .Rprofile to work and affect my sessions. To the best of my knowledge I have handled these files according to "Invoking R under Unix" in Rintro. .First within R works OK and this is the way I customize R at the present time. Hopefully someone out there...

Dear List, Further to my earlier email, I note that, for me at least, R CMD check is *not* reading R_LIBS from ~/.R/check.Renviron on R 2.15.2 patched (r61228) and R Under Development (r61660). The only way I can get R CMD check to look for packages in a user-supplied library is by explicitly exporting R_LIBS set to the relevant directory. R CMD build *does* read R_LIBS from ~/.R/build.Renviron for the same versions of R on t...

...the Startup file: "In R, the startup mechanism is as follows. Unless --no-environ was given, R searches for user and site files to process for setting environment variables. The name of the site file is the one pointed to by the environment variable R\_ENVIRON; if this is unset, `$R_HOME/etc/Renviron.site' is used. The user files searched for are `.Renviron' in the current or in the user's home directory (in that order). See Details for how the files are read." How can I tell if "--no-environ" was given? I cannot find either Renviron.site or .Renviron on my system....
