Sometimes when working with packrat, one gets this kind of output whilst checking on the status of the packrat library:
> packrat::status()
The following packages are tracked by packrat, but are no longer available in the local library nor present in your code:
_
viridisLite 0.2.0
You can call packrat::snapshot() to remove these packages from the lockfile, or if you intend to use these packages, use packrat::restore() to restore them to your private library.
The following packages have been updated in your library, but have not been recorded in packrat:
library packrat
RSQLite 2.0 NA
blob 1.1.0 NA
formatR 1.5 NA
Use packrat::snapshot() to record these packages in packrat.
The following packages are out of sync between packrat and your current library:
packrat library
BH 1.65.0-1 1.60.0-2
R6 2.2.2 2.2.0
Rcpp 0.12.13 0.12.7
Rfacebook 0.6.17 0.6.15
assertthat 0.2.0 0.1
backports 1.1.1 1.0.5
colorspace 1.3-2 1.2-6
curl 3.0 2.1
dplyr 0.7.4 0.5.0
htmltools 0.3.6 0.3.5
httr 1.3.1 1.2.1
jsonlite 1.5 1.4
lazyeval 0.2.1 0.2.0
openssl 0.9.8 0.9.4
reshape2 1.4.2 1.4.1
scales 0.5.0 0.4.1
stringi 1.1.5 1.1.2
tibble 1.3.4 1.2
yaml 2.1.14 2.1.13
Use packrat::snapshot() to set packrat to use the current library, or use
packrat::restore() to reset the library to the last snapshot.
My question is: Which one should one run first, restore() or snapshot()? I have looked through the packrat documentation but there doesn't seem to be a way one could carry out parameterized updates i.e. to nitpick on packages.
UPDATE:
Following Alex's suggestion below, I received this prompt:
> packrat::restore()
Adding these packages to your library:
_
viridisLite 0.2.0
Removing these packages from your library:
_
RSQLite 2.0
blob 1.1.0
formatR 1.5
memoise 1.1.0

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]:
The answer is No.
What I want to do is to remove viridislite, not add it, and I want to add RSQLite, blob and formatR as suggested.
And now I'm also wondering how memoise came into the picture...
It depends on what do you want from packrat. If you want to load the last snapshot, use restore(). If you update a package that's used in project, and want to make new snapshot, use snapshot().
