Following the official instructions to install R on ubuntu 10.04, I issued this command on the prompt,
sudo apt-get install r-base Here is the error msg, Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: r-base: Depends: r-base-core (>= 2.12.1-1hardy0) but 2.10.1-2 is to be installed Depends: r-recommended (= 2.12.1-1hardy0) but 2.10.1-2 is to be installed E: Broken packages Note I already have 2.10.1 installed. Any comments/advices appreciated.
