[R-sig-Debian] R packages for Natty Narwhal (Ubuntu 11.04) available, Karmic no longer supported
Ubuntu R users, R packages for the newest release of Ubuntu, Natty Narwhal (11.04) are available on a CRAN mirror near you (or soon will be). If you have used CRAN in the past, installation instructions are the same as before. CRAN has R 2.13.0 while the universe repository for Natty contains R 2.12.1, so to get the latest version you will need to use the CRAN repository (http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/). In addition, the CRAN repository will no longer be supporting Karmic Koala (9.10), as support for that distribution ends April 30, 2011. CRAN will continue to support the Hardy Heron LTS as long as no major issues are encountered while building the base and recommended packages. If you have any questions, please let me know.
