I updated R to R 2.15.0 via apt-get and received the message that
r-cran-mass was blocked.
I recently tried apt-get update/ apt-get safe-upgrade and received the
same message, for
r-cran-mass-7.3.16-1lucid0
I currently have MASS 7.3-7 installed
How can I figure out what is wrong and correct it?
thx,
The issue may be the use of the the "safe-upgrade" option. The first
thing is that I don't think apt-get has a "safe-upgrade" option. Are
you using aptitude or the "dist-upgrade" option in apt-get? I think
you can solve the problem by just using "apt-get upgrade". I don't
know why it is blocking MASS, but something in the "safe/dist-upgrade"
procedure is holding it back.
Sorry; I was using aptitude safe-upgrade.
uclid: ~ # apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
r-cran-mass
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Searching a bit, I discovered aptitude why-not:
aptitude why-not r-cran-mass
i r-base Depends r-recommended (= 2.15.0-1lucid0)
i A r-recommended Depends r-cran-mass
p A r-cran-mass Conflicts r-cran-vr
p A r-cran-mass Provides r-cran-vr

But now I'm not sure what to do to fix this. Any ideas?
