Hi, I am continuing here from a discussion on r-help. Dirk has advised me to turn to this group.
I have not succeeded in installing r2u with the add_cranapt_noble.sh script. I do not want to complicate the picture by detailing all my missteps. Instead, I will just start by describing my present status. When I start Rstudio, an error message comes up immediately in the console: Error in loadNamespace(x) : there is no package called ‘bspm’ (I should explain that at one stage, I had copies of the bspm package in two different directories. I then deleted them and thought I would begin afresh with the add_cranapt_noble.sh script). I decided to run the add_cranapt_noble.sh script again. I see the following now: ravi@ravi-P15xEMx:~$ sudo chmod +x /home/ravi/Downloads ravi@ravi-P15xEMx:~/Downloads$ cd /home/ravi/Downloads ravi@ravi-P15xEMx:~/Downloads$ sh add_cranapt_noble.sh E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ W: Problem unlinking the file /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin - RemoveCaches (13: Permission denied) W: Problem unlinking the file /var/cache/apt/srcpkgcache.bin - RemoveCaches (13: Permission denied) add_cranapt_noble.sh: 13: cannot create /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/cranapt_key.asc: Permission denied add_cranapt_noble.sh: 14: cannot create /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/cran_ubuntu_key.asc: Permission denied gpg: key 51716619E084DAB9: public key "Michael Rutter <marut...@gmail.com>" imported gpg: key 67C2D66C4B1D4339: public key "Launchpad PPA for Dirk Eddelbuettel" imported gpg: Total number processed: 2 gpg: imported: 2 add_cranapt_noble.sh: 17: cannot create /usr/share/keyrings/r2u.gpg: Permission denied add_cranapt_noble.sh: 20: cannot create /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cranapt.list: Permission denied add_cranapt_noble.sh: 23: cannot create /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cran_r.list: Permission denied E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ W: Problem unlinking the file /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin - RemoveCaches (13: Permission denied) W: Problem unlinking the file /var/cache/apt/srcpkgcache.bin - RemoveCaches (13: Permission denied) E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root? add_cranapt_noble.sh: 28: cannot create /etc/apt/preferences.d/99cranapt: Permission denied add_cranapt_noble.sh: 29: cannot create /etc/apt/preferences.d/99cranapt: Permission denied add_cranapt_noble.sh: 30: cannot create /etc/apt/preferences.d/99cranapt: Permission denied add_cranapt_noble.sh: 31: cannot create /etc/apt/preferences.d/99cranapt: Permission denied E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?
