[R-pkg-devel] Issue with nlme-package on Windows

[Daniel Lüdecke]

I have an issue with the nlme-package on Windows, where the package update is installed into my user folder (because the Program Files folder is write protected resp. access only for admins), while the nlme-package version that come along with the R installation is still in my Program Files directory. So I have two nlme-versions: 3.1-122 in my R-installation folder, and 3.1-124 in my Documents folder.

I recognized this because my package does not install when running R CMD check. The log states that „nlme 3.1-122 is being loaded, but nlme 3.1-124 is required“. I then saw that both nlme-versions are installed.

Is this a Windows-, R- or nlme-issue? When installing R on Windows, I’m being asked to choose a library-folder because „Program Files“ is write protected…

Best
Daniel
