Thank you very much Christophe by your advice. However, my situation was the opposite to yours, because I'm behind a proxy but my sudo account couldn't see it, and when looked for the proxy configuration of the sudo account with : $ sudo printenv | grep proxy the result was empty. Finally, thanks to all the advice received in this thread, I could fix the problem by editing the

Hi: I installed Lucid Lynx amd64 on my system today, dual booted with Win 7. I've managed to install several packages through the Ubuntu Software Center with success and also installed texlive.

Hello everyone, I've spent the last 2 days trying to install base R on my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS machine. I even just wiped my entire computer and reinstalled the operating system thinking that was the problem (since some people have problems updating R). So far I've tried to follow this link exactly that has instructions: http://mirror.las.iastate.edu/CRAN/ Since I just reinstalled Ubuntu I

Timothy, The link from stackoverflow gave some bad advice, IMO. You should be using the RRutter PPA, not RDev. RDev is the where I build not-ready-for-prime-time versions of R, and sometimes they break other things. RRutter is what is used to seed CRAN. Here is the link: https://launchpad.net/~marutter/+archive/ubuntu/rrutter I would remove the RDev PPA and install RRutter. The newest

Dear List: I'm having the same problem that was reported recently. The latest version of R cannot load the Matrix package, even though it is installed and readable. I've read the archive files for this list and tried the suggested solutions (e.g., removing/uninstalling the Matrix package and reinstalling it). Nothing has worked so far. Does anybody have advice of what I could try next?
