geniusR and geniusr conflict

[TinasheMTapera]

After installing both geniusR:

devtools::install_github("josiahparry/geniusR")
library(geniusR)

and ewenme's geniusr in one session:

install.packages("geniusr")
library(geniusr)

R seems to only keep one of the two in my packages library /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library, usually geniusr. I noticed this because functions from geniusr seemed to work fine, but gives this error with geniusR::genius_album():

Error in mutate_impl(.data, dots) : Evaluation error: lazy-load database
'/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/geniusR/R/geniusR.rdb' is corrupt.

This is confirmed when I check the directory, when I restart the session, reinstall packages, even when I reinstall R and RStudio. I'm gonna report the same issue on geniusr's github too.

Addendum: whichever package is installed last is the one that persists

Hey @TinasheMTapera, thanks for pointing this out. It's been an unfortunate consequence of having the same idea as @eoppe1022. I will soon be discontinuing development of geniusR in this repository and will be migrating it to another package. I'll keep you updated 😈
