Should/shouldn't there be one?
My R seems to be installed in /usr/lib/R. If do an "ls" of this directory, I get: > bin/ COPYING@ etc/ lib/ library/ modules/ > site-library/ SVN-REVISION Definitely no "doc". The (only) reason that I am concerned about this, is that I have decided to experiment a bit with Rstudio, and it apparently wants a "doc" directory. When I try to start Rstudio I get a pop-up window with the error message > R doc dir (/usr/local/lib64/R/doc) not found. Note that /usr/local/lib64/R is a symbolic link to /usr/lib/R. The latter is where my installation put R; the former seems to be where Rstudio wants it to. So I created the symbolic link. The discrepancy between locations is another puzzle/worry. My installation comes from a pre-built binary ("sudo apt install r-base"). I apparently have the latest version. I remark that I am running Ubuntu 20.04 with a Mate 1.20.4 desktop. How can I get a "doc" directory into my R directory and make Rstudio happy? cheers, Rolf Turner P.S. I have also tried to ask about this on the Rstudio community forum, but it seems to me to more of an R question than an Rstudio one. R.
