[R] [ESS] package loadable in R 3.1.1 Rterm but not in emacs/ESS

Hi

If you execute .libPaths() in both instances of R what do you see then?

There shouldn't be any differences.

Emne: [ESS] package loadable in R 3.1.1 Rterm but not in emacs/ESS

I'm running R on Windows 7. Clean install on a brand new computer
yesterday.  I installed Protext then R then Vincent Goulet's emacs
with ESS, in that order.

I then installed some R packages, in the R terminal window.  Among them was car

Today I opened emacs, hit M-x R to start an R session, and tried to
load the car library. Results looked like the following:


R version 3.1.1 (2014-07-10) -- "Sock it to Me"

Error in library(car) : there is no package called 'car'

However, in an R terminal (that is, outside of emacs) the car package
loads fine:

I have not encountered this before and am confused. Why would R 3.1.1
in its terminal "see" a library, whereas it would not in emacs?  (car
is just an example; the same thing happens with zoo, stringr, Hmisc,
and others.)

Thanks.
