Dear R People:

I'm not sure if this is an R problem or a Centos 5 problem, but here it
goes:

I'm running Rstudio from a Centos 5 server.  When I try to install packages
from a non-root account, I get the following:

I've changed the permissions, and updated the umask to 022.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Sincerely,
Erin
