Dear all, finally decided to do an Ubuntu upgrade and a new clean R install from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/.
However, while trying to install a package from R-forge I encountered problems, involving error messages saying "Rscript execution error: No such file or directory" (see below). The same procedure works on Ubuntu 11.04 running R 2.12.1-1 from the Ubuntu repositories. The behavior of Rscript on my (11.04 + 2.13.1) machine: $ which Rscript /usr/local/bin/Rscript $ Rscript --version R scripting front-end version 49838 $ Rscript -e 'rnorm(1)' Rscript execution error: No such file or directory on my 11.04 + 2.12.1: $ which Rscript /usr/bin/Rscript $ Rscript --version R scripting front-end version 2.12.1 (2010-12-16) $ Rscript -e 'rnorm(1)' [1] 0.9278564 Seems like this problem has been seen before (http://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14493), and that the wrong PATH and/or RHOME is involved. Any suggestions? Solutions? Cheers Johan -------------------------------------------- Install Error output (On Ubuntu Linux 11.04 64bit, R version 2.13.1 (2011-07-08).
