On another ubuntu machine using devtools 1.7 nothing else is loaded. I noticed this when I was trying to update Rcpp through an install.packages(...), but RStudio complained that because Rcpp was already loaded it would need to restart. I didn't recognize that devtools uses Rcpp so upon restart I loaded devtools again (so that I can get install_github for a different package) and then saw the same error that I couldn't update Rcpp because it was loaded.  The simple answer I think is to install.packages(Rcpp), then load devtools and call install_github for my other package, but this seems cumbersome to keep track of what devtools imported.  What are some other workarounds for this?\n\n> require(devtools)\n> Loading required package: devtools\n> sessionInfo()\n> R version 3.2.1 (2015-06-18)\n> Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0 (64-bit)\n> Running under: OS X 10.10.4 (Yosemite)\n\nlocale:\n[1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8\n\nattached base packages:\n[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base\n\nother attached packages:\n[1] devtools_1.8.0\n\nloaded via a namespace (and not attached):\n[1] rversions_1.0.1 curl_0.9.1      Rcpp_0.11.6     memoise_0.2.1\n[5] xml2_0.1.1      git2r_0.10.1    digest_0.6.8\n\n> require(devtools)\n> Loading required package: devtools\n> sessionInfo()\n> R version 3.1.1 (2014-07-10)\n> Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)\n\nlocale:\n [1] LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8       LC_NUMERIC=C\n [3] LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8        LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8\n [5] LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8    LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8\n [7] LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8       LC_NAME=C\n [9] LC_ADDRESS=C               LC_TELEPHONE=C\n[11] LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C\n\nattached base packages:\n[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base\n\nother attached packages:\n[1] devtools_1.7.0\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/r-lib/devtools/issues/comments/422419939","html_url":"https://github.com/r-lib/devtools/issues/886#issuecomment-422419939","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/r-lib/devtools/issues/886","id":422419939,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQyMjQxOTkzOQ==","user":{"login":"lock[bot]","id":33595554,"node_id":"MDM6Qm90MzM1OTU1NTQ=","avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/in/6672?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D","html_url":"https://github.com/apps/lock","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lock%5Bbot%5D/received_events","type":"Bot","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-09-18T14:38:17Z","updated_at":"2018-09-18T14:38:17Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"This old issue has been automatically locked.
