R SIG Debian - Oct 2023 - Error in ragg... Graphics API version mismatch

Hi

boxplot() returns an error I have seen reported on stackexchange:

Error in ragg::agg_png(filename = "/tmp/....
Graphics API version mismatch

The advice on
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/#debian-bullseye-stable is to
reinstall ragg cf. "will need to be reinstalled". I have tried doing
so
with apt and install.package() but neither worked. Am I missing something?
Do I have to reinstall RStudio (global graphics are set to backend AGG)?

versions
RStudio 2023.03.0 Build 386
R 4.3.1
Debian Bullseye

I expect to upgrade my Debian version later but not now. Will I have to
reinstall R 4.0.4 by removing the deb repository for 4.3.1?

Note: removing ragg enables RStudio to display a plot using alternative
software.

Best regards,
Johan

I am sorry yet delighted to announce that the problem has been resolved.
ragg didn't install successfully in the first place. When it was, there was
no graphics API mismatch. Apologies for the spam; this entry may be
deleted. Johan
