Using R on Linux I want to force downloaded packages to go into /usr/local/lib/R/site-library. I have an .Rprofile file in my home directory containing the following:
options(help_type='html', browser='chromium-browser', repos='http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/languages/R/CRAN', lib='/usr/local/lib/R/site-library') But sometimes install.packages (with R run as superuser using sudo) will create a directory called x86... under ~/R and put installed packages there. How do I force the system to always use /usr/local/lib/...?
