Jim,

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/

In this line, change "deb-src" to "deb" and run

apt-get update

and

apt-get install r-base r-base-dev

You only activated the source package repository, but you only need the repository of compiled packages, unless you use an architecture other than i386 or amd64.

Kind regards,

Johannes

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
