Dear Paul:
Thank you for your help.
Let me share you a handy thing I learned. You can get the commands
that the R packages are built with, along with the source code. Make
a directory (this will download a bunch of stuff)
apt-get source r-base-core
If I do that, but I obtain r-base-2.10.1 not the last r-2.12.0 files.
How can I obtain them?
I want to use them to build my own R-patched 2.12.0 version when they
arrive.
Thank you for your help.
I am using the cran.at.r-project.org mirror.
Follow the directions listed here:
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/
To get the source files, you need to add an extra line:
deb-src http://<my.favorite.cran.mirror>/bin/linux/ubuntu maverick/
After an apt-get update, you should be able to download the latest
source with:
apt-get source --only-source r-base
