        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.
