Details:

Does anyone currently have a maneage subsystem for installing _R_ (R-project)
extension packages?

Installing a "high" level extension package such as _ggplot2_ 

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ggplot2/index.html

seems like it may need several dozen or who knows, maybe a hundred or so other
R packages that it depends on.

The _R_ install using the shell command line

R CMD INSTALL --library=$(ildir)/R/library $(word 1,$(filter $(tdir)/%,$^))

in a 'make' line in _high-level.mk_ works fine for me for individual packages,
but we really should have a system equivalent to that of the _python_ system.
