Dear all,
I use R on a server on which I don't have administrative access.
I would like to update some of the R and Bioconductor packages I use
for my daily analysis,
however some of those packages are installed system-wide.
I would like to know how I can update those packages installing them
in my ~/R/ folder, and if this would cause any incompatibility.
So how can I get a list of packages that needs updating and force the
update to install them in my local folder?
It sounds like you want the 'instlib' argument to update.packages().
But if not, study the code of update.packages and modify to suit.
Thanks a lot in advance for all the help,
Cheers,
Luca
