Dear List, I am currently running R-2.10.1. I wish to install R-2.13.0 or update my R-2.10.1 to the R-2.13.0. I have downloaded R-2.13.0 but wish to seek your advice before installing that. Please is there a better way of updating to the newer version other than downloading and installing the version? Thanks for your suggestions.
There is some advice on this in the Windows FAQ. You can see the current version online at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw-FAQ.html#What_0027s-the-best-way-to-upgrade_003f If you're not using Windows, most of the advice in that FAQ item is still good (though the paths & filenames will be different).

Hi Duncan, Thanks for your time. Using ./configure as specified in the installation manual, I attempted to install R-2.13.0 but it reported an error message: checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... no checking X11/Intrinsic.h usability... no checking X11/Intrinsic.h presence... no checking for X11/Intrinsic.h... no configure: error: --with-x=yes (default) and X11 headers/libs are not available Could you please advise further. I am attempting this for the first time on my laptop (ubuntu os).
Can you just follow the instructions here: http://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu/ And use the apt-get mechanism to install R instead of compiling it yourself? I'm guessing it'd make your life a bit easier. -steve

I don't use Ubuntu, but that looks as though you don't have the development headers for X11 available. The usual advice I've seen on this is to install an Ubuntu binary rather than building yourself, but I don't remember the details of where to get it (and I don't remember how to get the X11 headers you need).

Ogbos,
I don't use Ubunto too, but X-11 headers should be installable running
apt-get xorg-dev
and/or (possibly)
apt-get libx11-dev xlibs-dev
Best

Well, it looks like you didn't read far enough in the instructions that you were pointed towards. Read the section on Secure APT. Hope this is helpful, Dan Daniel J.

In that cran/ubuntu page, there is a section entitled "SECURE APT" which talks about doing some gpg key juggling .. did you do that part? Also -- you might consider posting to the r-sig-debian list: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian if things start getting *really* out of control, though I suspect you're quite close to a solution now ... :-)
