Thanks Michael. I did what you suggested, but I still have b...@bd-laptop:~$ apt-show-versions | grep "r-base" r-base/unknown uptodate 2.11.1-2lucid0 r-base-core/unknown uptodate 2.11.1-2lucid0 r-base-dev/unknown uptodate 2.11.1-2lucid0 r-base-html/unknown uptodate 2.11.1-2lucid0 The only thing I can think is that it may be related to the mirror. The line in my sources.list reads: deb http://cran.stat.ucla.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu lucid/ which seems right, but perhaps I'm missing something. I'm not bothering with the key, so perhaps that is part of the problem... Here is the R.version: > R.version _ platform x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu arch x86_64 os linux-gnu system x86_64, linux-gnu status major 2 minor 10.1 year 2009 month 12 day 14 svn rev 50720 language R version.string R version 2.10.1 (2009-12-14) _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Debian mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian
