Error while loading ggplot2 package

Question

I get the following error when I try to load ggplot2. I tried to uninstall scales and reinstall it but for some reason R can't find the package when I want to remove the package...

Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]) : 
  namespace ‘scales’ 0.2.5 is already loaded, but >= 0.3.0 is required
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘ggplot2’ was built under R version 3.2.3 
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’

Your version of R is outdated. You must upgrade R first. Then you must run update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE). — user3710546

I had the same problem, I just install again ggplot2 and everything worked again. It installed also scales 0.4.2, so it solved the problem by itself.

Where did you find scales 0.4.2? The latest version on CRAN is 0.4.1.
