permission problems -xml2
If you haven't done that already, you can try with the latest R-devel/R-patched. A similar issue has been reported earlier for virtualized environments where the move operation was not working properly, so R now falls back to copying. But please be aware that R is currently not being tested/supported on WSL, you would likely run into more problems, it is not the same as running natively on Debian. Best Tomas

Apologies if this is the incorrect place for this question.? New Debian user here (via WSL on Windows). I've been installing packages (using install.packages) in to /usr/local/lin/R/site-library without problem until I tried to install xml2. When installing it gives the error message: mv: cannot move '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/00LOCK-xml2/00new/xml2' to '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/xml2': Permission denied I've added myself to the staff group and other packages have installed without issue. For information I'm running Debian Buster. Any pointers / suggestions as to where I'm going wrong? Regards Tim
