Maybe this is more a Ubuntu question,but... I am trying to get synaptic to work with R I have added http://cran.uk.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu as the URL and hardy/ as the distribution. But when I reload the repositories, I get an error Failed to fetch http://cran.uk.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/hardy/Packages.gz 301 Moved Permanently Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. I'm still struggling with Linux/Ubuntu so can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong. Many thanks, Graham [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

When you try apt-get update, you'll get a warning (that's better than an error ;) W: GPG error: http://cran-mirror.cs.uu.nl hardy/ Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY D67FC6EAE2A11821 To solve this, run:> gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv E2A11821 > gpg --export --armor E2A11821 | sudo apt-key add -apt-get update, and you should be able to install r-base (and any other packages you need).

Hi All R+Linux users, I am very new to Linux and I also have the (dis)similar problem. I try to install R 2.7.0 on Ubuntu. But I only got the R 2.6.2 version. Could anyone tell me how to uninstall R 2.6.2 and install R2.7.0 on Ubuntu. many thanks in advance.
