Transitioning from Mac to LInux?

I do same, including Rstudio (Cask).

Once in a while after major updates I need to reinstall all my extra
packages, so I have written me a little script along the lines of

	#!/usr/local/bin/Rscript
	local({
		r <- getOption("repos")
		r["CRAN"] <- "https://cloud.r-project.org/"
		options(repos = r)
	})
	install.packages(c(
		"RMariaDB", "rstudioapi"
	))

made it 0755 and can run it from the command line. Put it in my
handbook so I don't forget and never looked back.


greetings, el

I am using Homebrew on a Mac (two Macs - one at home, one at work)
instead of the official R package, and I did not have any problems
after upgrades - maybe I am lucky, maybe not as picky in defining
?problem?, but my suggestion would be to try R from homebrew to
install R.

OK - no support from here - I know.

And homebrew has also binary versions.  What is missing, is a hombrew
R package repository.  Maybe an idea to create one?


Cheers,

Rainer
