If you don't mind, I'm curious what didn't work - I would like to be able to update the document accordingly.
When you used .libPaths() what did it tell you? Did you edit that result to be for the previous version, and swap that into the list.files() command? I thought about automating it, but I can't be sure what previous version you're upgrading from. I suspect you tried to run the code by copy and paste, and not by putting in your own path, but if so then I'd like to improve the directions.
