pak::pkg_install(character()) hangs #716

Open kevinushey opened 2 hours ago

You just get a spinner with e.g.

> pak::pkg_install(character())
 Found  0  deps for  0/0  pkgs [⠦] Done

For what it's worth, I was expecting / hoping that this would be a shorthand for asking pak to update all currently-installed packages.

I would think that that means to do nothing. But yeah, this is a known problem, there are probably a couple of open issues for it.
