*Very* good point.  Given that what Michael does is outside of the distro, we
 are lacking some bells and whistles -- and moreover some check and balances
 I get thrown at me from within the distro and its quality checks.

So one thing we had run into was inconsistent versioning  so the "old" PPAs
may have shadowed the new one with the dh-r version wanted -- but 'hidden'
behind a higher version number. (This can happens as the version strings get
expanded with Ubuntu distro strings added etc pp).

So an implicit "reset" by only looking at one pair is a very good ides,

Great. Many thanks. BTW: Synaptic is refusing to install R due to this 
issue.

Ok -- that may just be a label in the metadata file.

Michael is currently traveling but I am sure he'll take a look.

[R-sig-Debian] Problem with Ubuntu bionic R 3.5

2018-06-13 Thread Ulrich Leuchtmann
I ran into a problem installing R 3.5 on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver. In file 
/etc/apt/sources.list I added the repository entry "deb 
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran35/". But 
"apt-get update" now produces an error message:


W: Konflikt bei Distribution: 
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran35/ InRelease 
(bionic-cran35/ erwartet, aber bionic bekommen)


In english, this should read something like

W: conflict in distribution: 
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran35/ InRelease 
(bionic-cran35/ expected, but bionic received)


It seems as if the new bionic R-3.5 distribution is not set up properly. 
I wonder if the "Codename" entry or the "Suite" entry in the 
/bin/linux/ubuntu/bionic-cran35/InRelease file should read 
"bionic-cran35" instead of "bionic".

error

r-base-dev : Depends: dh-r but it is not installable

deb http://uk-mirrors.evowise.com/ubuntu/ bionic-backports main restricted 
universe

but still giving error. Could you please suggest me how to fix it.

Thank you.
