Dear Sir,
I am almost giving up on getting the R-2.9.1 on the ubuntu 9.04 using the
instructions found on the R site.
I decided to use the R-2.9.1.tar.gz and untarred it.
I then typed ./configure and the results are shown below.
However, on typing make, I got an error, "No targets specified and no
makefile found stop"
What is the solution?

After solving problem 2, open a terminal and do:
sudo aptitude -y install r-base-core r-base-dev sun-java6-jdk
sudo R CMD javareconf
sudo R
Then, in R, type:
install.packages(c('JGR', 'iplots', 'rJava',
JavaGD'),
repos='http://www.vps.fmvz.usp.br/CRAN')
library(JGR)
JGR()
quit(save = 'no')
> Problem 2: I have tried in vain to get the newer R version of 2.9.1. I
keep on getting the 2.8.1. I have read the instructions from the R site but I
seem not to be there. What do I do?
To install R 2.9.1 in Ubuntu go to http://www.r-project.org/
on the left panel, click on CRAN
Choose a mirror
Click on:

Follow the instructions. You must be able to follow the instructions
because you'll have to disable the repository before upgrading Ubuntu
and, then, will have to update the R's repository.
