New installation
I "experiment" with the Fedora distribution at home but am very satisfied
with the Scientific Linux distribution here at work--I'm currently using
SL7.2.

I have tried many Linux distributions before, and never looked back after switching for Arch Linux. It is one of the best distributions with regard to having an up to date but still reasonably stable system. Other options are Fedora Rawhide (there's a Fedora SIG mailing list) or Debian Sid (as others mentioned, there's a Debian SIG mailing list), but I don't know how dependable those versions are.

Perhaps r-sig-debian is more appropriate, though it is not clear to me that a debian based linux is in fact the best for running R. Of course "best" is not clearly defined here, but I highly recommend Archlinux. Best, Ista On Jun 9, 2016 6:47 PM, "Bert Gunter" <bgunter.4567 at gmail.com> wrote:
I suggest that you post to the r-sig-debian list instead of here. I think you are more likely to get good answers to your query there.

Hi
I'm starting off with both R and Linux Mint. During a recent R course, I
had multiple difficulties with installing updates needed for the course.
As such, I'd like to hit the restart button with fresh installs of Linux
and R. I would appreciate your help with which Linux platform works best
with R, and how to go about getting all the updates installed for both
programs.
Many thanks, Jack
