...done, a metric ton of work around R and OS X / maxOS is the only one who could change this but I cannot realistically ask him to keep a number of (in some cases more difficult or esoteric) libraries afloat. And some of these have now been missing on his platform for several years. And in one case (RcppAPT, requiring libapt-dev) the build is even imppossible. Now, the Fedora maintainer knows this and has the build blacklisted. Hence: R> source("checkCRAN.R") Package ERROR WARN NOTE OK [...] 23 RcppAPT 2 4...

I'd be interested to hear views on how and when Ubuntu users should upgrade to R 3.5.0. I made the upgrade a few days ago but reverted because of issues installing packages such as rJava, which I installed on the system with r-cran-rjava. Also any advice on how to do a clean uninstall of the previous version before making the leap greatly appreciated. Thank you. Robin [[alternative HTML

...you can keep. If you | really need to upgrade you probably want to purge r-cran-* and | r-base-* and reinstall from the new ppa. Maybe the interfaces to the package systems can help: ie update.packages() has 'checkbuilt' option may be useful. On the Linux side I added a few queries to the RcppAPT package, so it can tell you which packages depend on older R versions like 3.4.* (or older).

So I cannot speak to the state of these backports as that is a project by Johannes outside of the official Debian scope. He may chime in.

Use 'apt cache policy r-cran-abc' to check on a (hypothetical) package abc. (We have RcppAPT to query apt from R too.) For Ubuntu, we opted for some flexibility by NOT imposing the r-api-3* tags. If you want, and know what you are doing, you _can_ upgrade now, use what is available as binaries (r-recommended plus some more) and then complement with local installation into /usr/local/lib/R...
