similar to: Problem installing R on Debian 6

Dear Hartyun Khachatryan, thanks for your report. It seems not a lot of people are using the backport to squeeze, as I have forgot to update the package index after doing the backport for R 3.2.2 and nobody (including me) noticed... The updated index is on its way to the CRAN mirrors, it will take some time to be synchronised, so please try again tomorrow. Johannes Am Mittwoch, 16.

summary: updating R .deb's from recommended mirrors @ http://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html has allowed me to keep my R version up-to-date for many months. But since Friday (25 Jan) I get errors like Failed to fetch <mirror URI/>/squeeze-cran/<deb name/>: Hash Sum mismatch but can install .deb's from non-CRAN sources. No fix from sudo rm /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin sudo

Hello, I have a problem with package "python-rpy2" with Debian Wheezy repository. I use this repo : deb http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian wheezy-cran3/ This package depends on "python-singledispatch" but it doesn't exist in official Debian repo... Could you help me to fix this issue ? Thanks a lot,

Thanks Johannes to clarify this point. It makes more sense to me now. So I understand that the idea is to make it simpler without apt-pinning for less adventurous people (I mean normal people :)): just add jessie-cran3 repo and you're good to go. Am I also correct that jessie-cran3 is essentially a backport of Debian SID, with some (short?) delay? In other words, modulo a couple of days,

Dear Johannes, R-sig-debian list, Along with Dirk Eddelbuettel I've been maintaining Debian-based Docker containers for R. Recently our container installing r-base has started to fail. This seems to be due to a problem with the libjpeg dependencies. The example I show below was working with debian:jessie on Jan 5th, but has been failing since then.

Dear all, I am experiencing this problem with R in Debian 6. The config saying about default shell in R for Debian 6 is in file /usr/lib/R/etc/Makeconf (line 80 "SHELL = /bin/bash") but in Debian 6 default shell for R is always SH instead of BASH. It can be checked by just typing in R system("echo $BASH_VERSION"). The same command system("echo $BASH_VERSION") in R

Dear Johannes, Thanks a lot for this work! I have to admit that I'm now a little bit puzzled, though. I'm running Debian Jessie (current testing) with great satisfaction. When it comes to R, I simply have the SID repository (official Debian) enabled, with some pining to get only R-related stuff. Now, I'm not sure to understand the benefit of using the CRAN repository for Jessie?I

I'm running Debian Squeeze on an amd64 machine and currently have R 2.15.3. Some packages have been installed with aptitude and some with install.packages(). Now I'd like to update R to 3.0.2 (I upgraded arm to a version that requires 3.0 :-( ), and I'm a confused. - http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/ seems to say I just change the sources list to point to

Hi. On the release version of Debian Wheezy, I am missing symbols for left and right brackets in plotmath. Anybody see similar trouble while reviewing demo(plotmath)? This is a completely clean, fresh install. I've not installed any peculiar libraries or packages, except R, the installation of which still puzzles me. I configured a CRAN mirror for packages using squeeze-cran3 folder, and

Hello again, I'm glad to tell you that I fixed that error. It was gcc compiler error and I found the solution right here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/26498/choose-gcc-and-g-version (this link was sent by Harutyun Khachatryan). I changed the versions of gcc and g++ from 4.3 and 4.4 to 4.8 and 4.9 and it worked. I also posted the solution in the gist I've sent you before. Thank you

Dear Johannes, ... no one in his/her clear mind would go that way unless necessary. I have given reasons

After Johannes set up the CRAN repository for Jessie, I had quite some trouble figuring out what any user should do to have a running and up-to-date R in Debian (particularly Testing). Part of the problem is, I think, the overwhelming documentation on the page "DEBIAN PACKAGES OF R SOFTWARE" which is provided on CRAN at /bin/linux/debian. Some information is also lacking in places.

Hi Johannes, I didn't know what would be the best approach to modify the page?how it was generated, is there a central place, etc.?which is why I posted on r-sig-debian in the first place. Anyway, although I'm more or less familiar with markdown and pandoc, it was easier for me to edit directly README.html as it was on CRAN. Please find attached a revision with the modifications I

Dear Dirk, Dear Johannes, Thanks for helping, I could solve the problem. By reading your posts, I got a bit of the impression that questions beyond the 'standard installation' process are not really welcome on R-SIG-Debian. If this is the case, I'm sorry for my post. I wasn't aware of this, but Dirk makes it clear why on

Dear Johannes, Dear Dirk, Thanks a lot for helping. Here is the missing information. Here is how I installed R. This is basically how Martin Maechler showed me to install R under Ubuntu (in several versions so that they are also recognized by ESS). My goal is to adjust this to make it work for Debian: 1) sudo emacs /etc/apt/sources.list # then add: deb

Hello everyone, I installed R and trying to install additional package: `rgl`. The problem is, I keep getting this error: installation of package ?rgl? had non-zero exit status All warnings, installation log and R version info in available in my gist: https://gist.github.com/mateuszcisek/2337bd92695b7ddf10bca10ea403c712 (it was too long to use it all in the message).

I am trying to update R on debian testing and am getting the following error from the package manager. Do I need to change the website link?
