Hi again,

This new rpm R-base-2.3.0-beta should automatically resolve dependencies. At
least it did so on my machine. I would be happy to get a report, if you try
to install this one and find difficulties or success!.
Most important would be to report missing

I am sorry, but the note was not primarily directed at you, perhaps (I

For your information. A few days ago I ordered SuSE 10, the version
corresponding to the old Professional. It arrived today, and was
installed. When the R-base rpm was downloaded with Mozilla Firebird,
it was only to open it when the download was finished, click the
install with YaST
I have started with using R on Windows, and I am really happy about
the system. Now, one of my other ambitions is to learn how to use
Linux, so yesterday I downloaded OpenSuse and installed that. The
next problem was to try to use R with Linux. And there I met the

Tom,
I'm irritated as well. Your email should go to some suse mailing list,
this is a suse problem, it has (almost) nothing to do with R.
Unfortunately i can't help you (even if i wanted), because i don't want to
read the suse manuals. But if you want to use suse you may consider reading
them.
Better yet, forget reading the SUSE manual. For a user at your level
who wants to begin with Linux, but also wants a system that just works

The thing is that i really believe that installing R on MOST linux
distributions takes just 10 seconds. Only you need to know the right
command.

Hi,
I`m the one to blame for the readme :-) and for providing the rpms.
If you encounter such big problems my readme sucks. But I'm open for
critisism and will improve on the current situation for the
release of R-2.3.0 next monday.
It would have helped, if I got the error messages you saw. Now
