RStudio package maintenance moved to Copr
Many thanks I?aki. Will Quarto get pulled in from your COPR automatically as well or do we need to specifically install it before/after? Also is it worth updating the "add ons" section at https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/fedora/ as well? Tim

Dear all, With the latest release of RStudio last week (v2024.09.0+375), support for Qt builds has been removed. This means that we can no longer maintain RStudio packages in the official Fedora repositories, because the necessary Electron component is missing. RStudio is supported in the official repositories up to v2024.04.2+764 and F40, and has been retired from newer branches. Consequently, I moved maintenance to Fedora Copr, where I have more flexibility. You can find an up-to-date Electron build in the iucar/rstudio Copr repository [1], available for F39 and later, for x86_64 and aarch64. Installation instructions are provided there. Upgrading from the official repos to this new one should work without issue. [1] https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/iucar/rstudio/ Best,
