Version R 2.0.0 claims:
- The stub packages from 1.9.x have been removed.
- All the datasets formerly in packages 'base' and 'stats' have
been moved to a new package 'datasets'.
- Package 'graphics' has been split into 'grDevices' (the graphics
devices shared between base and grid graphics) and 'graphics'
(base graphics).
- Packages must have been re-installed for this version, and
library() will enforce this.
- Package names must now be given exactly in library() and
require(), regardless of whether the underlying file system is
case-sensitive or not.
