Update packages in 00_Startup.R #76

Closed geneorama closed 6 years ago

geneorama commented 9 years ago

Previously CODE/00_Startup.R ran update.packages, but that was removed via the @fgregg pull request.

Although update.packages is not necessary, we should check some package versions. Specifically data.table requires version > 1.9.4 for the function foverlaps. The data.table dependencies such as Rcpp also should meet their minimums.

Also, if we're going to specify the mirror, that mirror should be http://cran.rstudio.com. See http://blog.rstudio.org/2013/06/10/rstudio-cran-mirror/ for a post about how R Studio is using the Amazon CloudFront CDN service to optimize downloads.
