similar to: R 2.13.0 beta builds now available for all releases of Ubuntu

This is a post I just added to my Ubuntu R Blog (http://www.personal.psu.edu/mar36/blogs/the_ubuntu_r_blog/2013/03/moving-to-r-300-on-ubuntu.html). As you may (or may not) be aware of, R 3.0.0 is [scheduled to be released](http://www.r-project.org/) on April 3rd. Since this is a major release and there may be some growing pains (but I hope not) in the move 3.0.0, here is some information

New .deb packages for R 3.0.0 on Raring Ringtail (13.04) are available on both [CRAN](http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/) and my [Launchpad PPA](https://launchpad.net/~marutter/+archive/rrutter). Some notes for this release. - The initial build for Raring Ringtail did not come with Tcl/Tk being supported. This issue has been addressed and the current release supports Tcl/Tk. -

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

As per a request, here is a brief guide to what is available to R users as packages in Ubuntu. Each release of Ubuntu includes the latest version of R and the recommended packages. In addition, there are approximately 80 additional r-cran packages available in the default repositories. The limitation to these packages is that they are not updated and reflect the current version of the

I have been a little quiet on the update front for the past few months, so I thought I would give a quick update as 2014 begins. Between increased responsibilities at work (pseudo-department chair) and some family health issues, work on [cran2deb4ubuntu](https://launchpad.net/~marutter/+archive/c2d4u) (c2d4u) slowed a bit in the last half of 2013. Here is the current state of

This issue has been solved. I didn't change to trusty when I updated Ubuntu. I now have the following lines in my /etc/apt/sources.list file: deb http://cran.utstat.utoronto.ca/bin/linux/ubuntu trusty/ and deb http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu/ trusty-backports main restricted universe I also installed the keys described on http://mirror.las.iastate.edu/CRAN/ but I'm not sure if I needed

Ubuntu users, The latest version of Ubuntu (12.04 LTS: Precise Pangolin) has been released. Current R packages are also available from the following locations: The CRAN repository http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ My Launchpad PPA (feeds CRAN, has a few more packages) https://launchpad.net/~marutter/+archive/rrutter cran2deb4ubuntu (over 1000 packages found in CRAN Taskviews, not

Ubuntu R users, Early this month, version 3.0 of JAGS was released on its Sourceforge page. Dirk Eddelbuettel and I quickly rolled up packages for Debian and Ubuntu, respectively. If you are an Ubuntu user who utilizes my Launchpad PPA for your R related .deb files, JAGS was updated automatically. The downside to this is that JAGS 3.0 is not compatible with the R package rjags, also found

Users of R and Ubuntu, Due to the loss of a server, I have taken over the building of both the i386 and amd64 binaries of R for Ubuntu. Those builds are now being mirrored to the CRAN servers. A few things have changed. 1. The packages are now signed by me, not Vincent Goulet. You will have to add my key (E084DAB9) with apt-key. See http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ for more

Today (May 4, 2013) I will begin the process of backporting R 3.0.0 to Quantal, Precise, and Lucid. This will include all the recommended packages and the packages for R found in the universe repository for Ubuntu. Things to keep in mind: - If you do not want to receive these upgrades and you use the CRAN repositories or my Launchpad PPA, please remove them from your apt/synaptic sources lists.

Hi, I am unable to install the R package XML using R 3.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (64-bit).

I have recently re-installed R on my Ubuntu system to get R 3.5 and found this to have worked: # you may need to remove incumbent repos e.g. with: sudo apt-add-repository --remove ppa:marutter/rrutter # add new repos sudo apt-add-repository ppa:marutter/rrutter3.5 # for base R sudo apt-add-repository ppa:marutter/c2d4u4.5 # for pkgs - this saved me lots of time installing my set-up At the end

It appears that the revoluton-mkl package, available via the multiverse Ubuntu repository with the purpose of adding multi-threaded numeric libraries to R, is not function correctly with R 2.13 (at least the version found on CRAN). Testing with "R-benchmark-25.R" (found at http://r.research.att.com/benchmarks/), I get the following error, after installing the revolution-mkl package
