Hi Jim, Seems you need some pinning. What's the result of:
apt-cache policy r-base ? Mathieu. Le 13/03/2012 17:57, Jim Armstrong a écrit :
Linux kernel 2.6.18-2-pve Proxmox vm. debian_version 6.0.4 Squeeze sessionInfo() R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) x86_64-pc-linux-gnu locale: C New to R, new to Debian. I'm trying to upgrade from 2.11.1 to 2.14 following the steps outlined in the doc below that I found on the link. http://www.r-project.org/ - DEBIAN PACKAGES OF R SOFTWARE I added this line to the sources.list file it's my closest mirror. deb-src http://cran.wustl.edu/bin/linux/debian squeeze-cran/ Ran apt-get update and then apt-get install r-base r-base-dev No errors returned seemed to run clean. Ran sessionInfo() from within R and it returns 2.11.1 Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to take a different approach? I have this link but I'm not sure of what I need off of it. If I do need to pull something from it. Index of /bin/linux/debian/squeeze-cran Thanks For a backport of the latest R release to squeeze, simply add something like deb http://<favorite-cran-mirror>/ bin/linux/debian squeeze-cran/ to the file /etc/apt/sources.list on your computer and install as usual. Note that you need to substitute<favorite-cran-mirror> by one of the mirror URLs listed in http://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html There are binaries for the i386 and amd64 architectures. You can use the source packages from deb-src http://<favorite-cran-mirror>/bin/linux/debian squeeze-cran/ to compile binaries for other platforms. With an appropriate entry in /etc/apt/sources.list, the newest R release can be installed using a command sequence like apt-get update apt-get install r-base r-base-dev [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Debian mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian
