'Installation of package <package> had non-zero exit, > status' on R-3.2.0 (RStudio Version 0.98.1103) on Ubuntu 12.04 OS
As another post has suggested, r-sig-debian may be more help. However, it looks like you need to install a different package from the one you tried. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1774516 about getting libcurl on 12.04. FYI Ubuntu 12.04 is now getting dated, and I've found people using it get similar problems to that you encountered -- i.e., packages that more up to date distros use are not available, or those that are available don't have all the features needed. Maybe time to upgrade. JN

In that case, it seems that *libcurl* is not available for R-3.2.0 as I get
a message for
*>* *install.packages("libcurl")*
package ?libcurl? is not available (for R version 3.2.0)
Or if on Terminal I run
*sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev*
Package libcurl4-openssl-dev is not available, but is referred to by
another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
