If R changes from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2, or more generally from m.n.p to m.n.q, is it necessary to refresh libraries to match the version, e.g., with update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE, ask=FALSE)? The R Windows FAQ 2.8 says "For those with a personal library (folder R\win-library\x.y of your home directory, R\win64-library\x.y on 64-bit builds), you will need to update that too when the minor version of R changes (e.g. from 3.0.2 to 3.1.0)."
This suggests that in m.n.q n is the minor version (which would make q the release?), and that the minor version does not change between 3.0.1 and 3.0.1. But I'm not sure. I'm interested in Unix as well as Windows. Thanks.
