[R] update packages from local

[Uwe Ligges]

1. Please quote the old threat, at least I do not keep old messages.
2. Try install.packages() from a freshly started R (that has not loaded 
the package in advance).
3. Since I am doing things in the shell for package development anyway, 
I tend to call package installation from the shell as well:

R CMD INSTALL foo_x.y-z.tar.gz
