Hi Dirk, One side observation: r-cran debian now seems to be in Ubuntu 20.10 Universe so I don't need to add the repo any more. Here is a reproducible example that fails with the latest r-cran-rcppparallel but works when I manually install the source package: require(rstan) stancode <- 'data {real y_mean;} parameters {real y;} model {y ~ normal(y_mean,1);}' mod <- stan_model(model_code = stancode, verbose = TRUE) TRANSLATING MODEL '16a540c6086086816528e4524def24d9' FROM Stan CODE TO C++ CODE NOW. successful in parsing the Stan model '16a540c6086086816528e4524def24d9'. COMPILING THE C++ CODE FOR MODEL '16a540c6086086816528e4524def24d9' NOW. OS: x86_64, linux-gnu; rstan: 2.21.2; Rcpp: 1.0.5; inline: 0.3.16 Error in system.file("lib", .Platform$r_arch, package = "RcppParallel",? : ? no file found I also still have a plotly::ggplot(ggplot output) that fails to render unless I install plotly from install.packages(...).

Frank, Your html mail still upsets my reader so still no quote. I do not know what you refer to as "r-cran". Maybe you mean that Debian and Ubuntu have packages in the distro? If so that is true since say 2003 when I started adding via r-cran-rodbc which were actually followed by your design package before it was rms and on cran... To take the rstan example, it is in Debian https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=r-cran-stan and hence also in Ubuntu https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=r-cran-stan At present, there around 900 such r-cran-* or r-bioc-* packages directly in Debian or Ubuntu. It looks like are currently using one of these and have a bug. The best step would then be to contact the (Debian) package maintainer. But for completeness: The Rutter PPA remains extremely attractive as it offers 4700 packages---which is significantly more than the 900 in core. We also offer nice (and new) access layers via BSPM, or alternatively to RSPM serving "raw" binaries (not .deb packages). But that is a different topic. :) Hope this helps, Dirk -- https://dirk.eddelbuettel.com | @eddelbuettel | edd at debian.org
Hi Dirk, Apologies for the html. I think I'm missing something simple.?? Ubuntu 20.10 uses /etc/apt/sources.list.d to hold repo information and I have this file there: marutter-ubuntu-rrutter4_0-focal.list with contents: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/marutter/rrutter4.0/ubuntu/ focal main # deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/marutter/rrutter4.0/ubuntu/ groovy main I ran sudo apt update, then apt-cache search r-cran* | wc but this only reports 935 packages. Somehow the Rutter repo is not taking precedence over what's in Ubuntu University repo.
