Hi, I am trying to upgrade my R version but am having some error trying to get the key for automatic upgrading from aptitude (ubuntu 11.04). This is what I did, following instructions from http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/
I added the repository address to my software manager. deb http://stats.bris.ac.uk/R/bin/linux/ubuntu natty/ I am trying to get the key from keyserver.ubuntu.com through port 11371 (I checked it's open) using both options mentioned (console and webpage) but I am getting the following errors: #translated from spanish $ sudo gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key E084DAB9 [sudo] password for david: gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership of config file `/home/david/.gnupg/gpg.conf' gpg: external program calls inactive due to unsafe file permissions. gpg: communication error with key server: Error general gpg: key server reception failed: Error general And in the webpage version I get an "Error Handling Request" message Can anyone help me with this issue? Is the keyserver webpage down?
