similar to: Changing R_LIB_USER variable in ubuntu...

I asked a couple of months ago in r-sig-fedora about a difference I noticed between Ubuntu and RedHat/Fedora. Now I think I've figured out the cause is a little issue in packaging but I don't know how to get it fixed. On Ubuntu, the setup is like this. It i is controlled in a file called Renviron R packages built/distributed in RPM are installed to /usr/lib/R/library. R packages built

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

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),

Hi, R people. I'm shy reporting this, as a bug in this area sounds very unlikely. Did I make my tests wrongly? I'm still flaky at all this. Let me dare nevertheless, who knows, just in case... Please don't kill me! :-) Not so long ago, I wrote to this list: > (For now, [the library code] works only for me when I do _not_ use `-l > MY/OWN/LIBDIR' at `R CMD INSTALL'

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

Hello, I'm adding a private library tree in my home directory by adding this to my ~/.Renviron: R_LIBS="~/R/library:${R_LIBS}" so that once in R: R> cat(Sys.getenv("R_LIBS"), "\n") ~/R/library:/usr/local/lib/R/site-library:/usr/lib/R/site-library:/usr/lib/R/library Is this the best way to proceed?

Hi all, I'm trying to check a package using R CMD check --as-cran <package>. When I do so, the check fails upon not finding the dependencies which I have installed in a non-standard location. Per the manual, I created ~/.R/check.Renviron : $ cat ~/.R/check.Renviron R_LIBS=/usr/lib64/R/library:/usr/lib64/R/var R_LIBS_SITE=/usr/lib64/R/library:/usr/lib64/R/var No luck. I tried

Dear developers, I am writing a package that depends on some other packages. The dependencies are stated in the `description' file under "Depends". They are installed in my private library, which is pointed to by setting R_LIBS in .Renviron, and are available if R is started normally. However, when I try to `R CMD check' my package, R complains about the dependencies being not

AFAIU, 'R CMD check --as-cran' tries to hide any site and user package libraries by setting R_LIBS_SITE and R_LIBS_USER. However, contrary to R_LIBS_SITE, it fails for R_LIBS_USER and the user's personal library is still available for test scripts. Should I revise my assumptions, or is that intentional? The short version. Shouldn't: $ R_LIBS_USER='' Rscript --vanilla -e

Hi all, I added the following line on the "Renviron.site" file: R_LIBS=C:\Program Files (x86)\R\library And when I start R and run: .libPaths() I don't see this path. On windows XP it worked for me. I am now using windoes 7 (64 bit) with R 32. Is there a reason this shouldn't work? Thanks, Tal ----------------Contact

Dear List, I'm having considerable trouble setting up my environment (Linux, Fedora 16, Bash) to build and check packages under R Under Development (r61660). I'm doing this to better get a handle on difference in the output from running checks on examples in one of my packages. Note I compiled R Under Development myself The problem I am now having is whenever I try to build my analogue

Hi, I am interested in customizing the 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

Hello, I have a problem with the princomp method, it seems stupid but I don't know how to handle it. I have a dataset with some regular data and some outliers. I want to calculate a PCA on the regular data and get the scores for all data, including the outliers. Is this possible on R? Thank you for helping!!! -- View this message in context:

I want my local libraries to have priority over the system installed ones, which, as far as I can make out from help(".libPaths"), means they have to come first in that list (it doesn't actually_say_ so, but that seems to be the idea). We have R_LIBS_USER which looks made for specifying where I keep my own libraries. Unfortunately it comes last in .libPaths() [which appears to

Dear Johannes, Dear Dirk, Thanks a lot for helping. Here is the missing information. Here is how I installed R. This is basically how Martin Maechler showed me to install R under Ubuntu (in several versions so that they are also recognized by ESS). My goal is to adjust this to make it work for Debian: 1) sudo emacs /etc/apt/sources.list # then add: deb

Thanks to Peter Dalgaard , I have made some decent progress as far as getting R to work in linux . I just want to set my environment variable R_LIBS to /u/etlfs/dev/users/leedsmar/R/library ( in linux ) so that I can install specific packages. Does anyone know the syntax and in which file I set this variable ( .Rprofile etc ). I've looked in the installation manual ( i'm mainly on pg 14

Hi, Sorry for posting a question that has been asked before but I couldn't quite find the right answer in previous help topics. I am trying to set my library path to a user-specified library ("C:/Users/K/Documents/Work/RLib"). I have used .libPaths("C:/Users/K/Documents/Work/RLib") but when I check the .libPaths(), both the user-specified and default libraries appear. It

Hi, I've got a library I'm trying to build, and am having an error on R CMD check... The source is fine, and the script runs OK, but during the script test execution it downloads a library from an online repository, which goes fine and it says that installation was successful... However, after it installs the library OK, it then cannot find it (despite it being installed properly in

Hi there, I'm in the following directory: ~/Documents/Rstuff/diceFiles/dice_1.1 The directory "dice" is in this directory, with all the usual build files (DESCRIPTION, NAMESPACE, etc). I'm trying to run the following command: R CMD check dice (where "dice" is the name of the package I'm checking), and I get the following: * checking package dependencies ...
