Unable to install R Studio [duplicate]
Solution 1:
Installing from a .deb
file through dpkg
does not resolve dependency issues the same way installation through apt
will. After running the sudo dpkg -i yourpackage.deb
, you should run sudo apt-get install -f
to fix and complete the installation if any errors were encountered by dpkg
.
Solution 2:
Your best bet is to use gdebi
to do RStudio installations. It automatically resolves dependencies (unlike dpkg
).
sudo apt-get install gdebi-core
sudo gdebi rstudio-0.99.902-i386.deb
In fact, that's what RStudio themselves recommends for rstudio-server installation.
