Jim,

What version of Ubuntu are you using? Was this a fresh install or an upgrade? This is the only report of this I have heard, so I need some more information.

I've just installed r-base (several times!) using the instructions at

and for some reason it is not creating a /etc/R/ldpaths file.

I've tried a few times, tried purging, and removing everything in
/etc/R    and
/usr/lib/R

as suggested by Dirk,

and reinstalling but still get

$ R
/usr/bin/R: line 236: /usr/lib/R/etc/ldpaths: No such file or directory

R version 3.0.2 (2013-09-25) -- "Frisbee Sailing"
Copyright (C) 2013 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing
Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)


and then cannot install packages.

I tried manually creating the file /etc/R/ldpaths and it got rid of the
error when loading R, but would still not install packages.

Something is not loading/installing correctly for latest version.  Can
anyone help diagnose and fix?

Thanks a bunch,

J
