Dear Ubunutu R users, Vincent Goulet and myself would like to announce the availability of R 2.11.0 for Ubuntu's latest release, Lucid Lynx. The packages should be on or arriving soon to your favorite mirror. R 2.11.0 packages also exist on CRAN for all Ubuntu releases going back to hardy. As Johannes Ranke pointed out for the Debian release, R packages installed under R < 2.10.0

I am running R on Ubuntu Heron. I recently updated to R 2.8.0 from the default (2.6) in the Ubuntu heron repository by adding deb http://cran.stat.sfu.ca/bin/linux/ubuntu hardy/ I updated all packages installed in /usr/lib/R/site-library and those in my home directory /home/duncan/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.6 without obvious issues. I installed adehabitat and gpclib, which should be good

Hi I'm trying to install R on Ubuntu 11.10 and it seems to install fine with both apt-get and dpkg but always when I start R I get jt42@bioinf4:~# R /usr/local/bin/R: line 237: /usr/lib/R/etc/ldpaths: No such file or directory R version 2.14.0 (2011-10-31) Copyright (C) 2011 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing ISBN 3-900051-07-0 Platform:

I've just installed r-base (several times!) using the instructions at http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ and for some reason it is not creating a /etc/R/ldpaths file. I've tried a few times, tried purging, and removing everything in /etc/R and /usr/lib/R as suggested by Dirk, and reinstalling but still get $ R /usr/bin/R: line 236: /usr/lib/R/etc/ldpaths: No such file

I am running the beta test version of Ubuntu 9.10, x86_64 on a machine and encountered some peculiarities in LaTeX called through R-devel CMD texi2pdf file.tex The tilde character in the input, which should produce a non-breaking space, is now being rendered as a tilde. Does anyone know where I could begin exploring for explanations and/or workarounds?

Hello, I was following the instructions at https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/#secure-apt but encountered this message upon apt-get update: GPG error: http://cran.rstudio.com trusty/ Release: The following signatures were invalid: KEYEXPIRED... And then the following on apt-get install: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! Investigating a little, it looks like

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?

Hi, I am running Ubuntu 10.10 and I have just installed R 2.14.0. When I try to install a package: install.packages("SPOT") it returns an error message: "Error in readRDS(file) : error reading from the connection". Also, when I try the command in R: update.packages(), it returns the same error message described previously. Any ideas? Regards, Monica [[alternative

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

I am trying to add Michael Rutter's ppa to my repository.? I cannot do this from the command line.? I think I may be behind a firewall so copying the key to a text file is my best option.? When I search for the key at http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/ the search fails. Tried typing and cutting and pasting E084DAB9 into the search box without success. How can I get the key?

Dear all, I am having exactly the same problem as Andy on an Intel Mac (see below / https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2009-May/006208.html) with the degree symbol. I am using R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) on Xubuntu 10.04 with Windows fonts copied from /WINDOWS/Fonts and included via 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig' and 'sudo fc-cache'. Any help would be highly

I am new to ubuntu, but have used R for years on Fedora. I have a simple question that I do not quite understand. I first installed R from the ubuntu repository (2.6.2 I believe it was--whatever is current there) before finding the debian/ubuntu SIG here when searching for R 2.7.1. Subsequently I upgraded to 2.7.1 using the instructions at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/. I am

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

Dear all, I having this problem on my laptop. It was caused by my clumsy attempts to upgrade the system. As I wrote here, (http://www.mail-archive.com/r-sig-debian at r-project.org/msg01364.html) I was trying to solve the same problem with JAGS/rjags on my laptop. After typing R in a terminal I'm currently get the following: > R version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17) > Copyright (C) 2009 The R

Hi, In the aftermath of the signing key expiring a couple of days ago, it seems that the Ubuntu repositories are no longer signed (there is no Release.gpg file present). This is not a good situation as users cannot verify the packages' origin. I hope this will be fixed promptly :-) Thank you, Mikko Pesari
