Dirk,
I am grateful for all the work and volunteer hours you put into this! And I
appreciate the time you and others take to help us newbies. All the frustration
I was expressing (for not being able to install tidyverse) was all on me. It was
not in any way a criticism.
Your articles are great,
Luben,
We all have different types of learning and how we approach this, let alone
how we decompose things. With that, sorry you found this frustrating. Many
of us put volunteer time into this trying to make things 'possible' and
preferably 'easy' but we don't always get there.
That said, I
Facu,
I have spent over 20 hours in the last week or so trying to install that single
package, tidyverse, and have tried many things suggested on many sites without
success.
I did have the "deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu jammy-cran40/"
in my sources list all along
I finally
Luben,
Yes, I've seen the other thread, but didn't dig into the scripts to see
what might be failing.
In any case, I can assure you that you can install tidyverse on Mint
without any trouble. I suggest you run the installation scripts
manually, line by line, trying to understand what you are
Facu, I have a separate thread for this, but I think this is the best place to
ask you about it - have you been able to install tidyverse on your Linux Mint?
This is my next hoop to jump through...

Hi Luben,
For what is worth, I've been a RStudio-on-Mint user for many years now
and never had major problems. You just need to proceed as if you were
using the upstream Ubuntu version corresponding to your Mint version. E.g. :
cat /etc/upstream-release/lsb-release
I agree with Dirk in that
Dirk,
Tank you for your response this late in the day. I had Debian, but
couldn't get it to work on my new work computer (and can't get Linux
help from our IT), hence Linux Mint now.
Because of the issues you mentioned with Posit, and others, I have
been thinking about using Emacs instead of
Luben,
I am glad to hear you sorted it out. As far as I can tell there are two or
three issues here:
- you are on Mint which is not 'officially' support by posit (Debian/Ubuntu are)
- the installation instructions have said for a decade+ to download the .deb
and then install it with gdebi
I couldn't install RStudio from the terminal in Linux Mint, like I
hoped, but managed to install it the "MS Windows way", by downloading
the .deb file from RStudio's website and then double-clicking the
downloaded file... (and importing their key). Would love to be able to
do it all from the
