I have an ubuntu image with R installed. I want to install a list of
packages that does not come with R. eg. cluster, gplots, hacks, mapdata.
etc. Over time this list may grow.
Is there a config file that can tell R what and where to install additional
packages? My goal is to store all R packages on a file server so that my
clients can install them on there workstation. Any tips, advice, example
commands, and scripts are greatly appreciated!
If such a network server is available for the clients, why not make
a) a network installation of R
b) provide the relevant packages in a library on the network, so that
all clients can use the same library of R packages. You only need to
maintain that library.
See "R Installation and Administration" on hwo to manage libraries of R
packages.
