Description
Describe the bug
The instructions given in the Wiki for installing languageserver in a separate minimal library and having vscode-R load it from there do not work for me. The r.libPaths setting seems to have no effect. I get the message
VSCode R Session Watcher requires jsonlite, rlang. Please install manually in order to use VSCode-R.
during R startup in projects using renv and can't send commands to R, use the help viewer, etc. When I use .libPaths() in the R session to point R to the standalone library manually, I can load languageserver and jsonlite without a problem.
To Reproduce
Follow the steps outlined in the Wiki, then create an R terminal in a renv-enabled project. The error message appears and help viewer etc. do not work.
Can you fix this issue by yourself? (We appreciate the help)
No

Expected behavior
languageserver should be loaded from the library specified in the r.libPaths setting, help viewer etc. should work.
Environment (please complete the following information):
- OS: macOS 14.2.1
- VSCode Version: 1.85.2
- R Version: 4.3.2
- vscode-R version: 2.8.2
Additional context
Maybe additional settings have to be changed that are not mentioned in the Wiki? I read about "r.lsp.args": ["--vanilla"], which did not have any effect, and r.lsp.libPath, which does not seem to exist any more (and, unsurprisingly, also has no effect).
