After getting some "can't load" error messages, I discovered that the installer had updated the MicrosoftROpen.app, not the "vanilla"  R.app . Is this expected behavior, or am I making a hash of my apps and libraries by trying to keep both R and MRO available on my (Yosemite) machine?

The MRO website says it's not possible. I have managed to have an R.app/CRAN_R version 3.3.x running alongside MRO version 3.2.x but I have needed to use the R_Switch.app (spelling?) from the r.att.research.com website to go back an forth between them.
