Dear all,
I seem to have many problems as I run R on my ubuntu system.
want to set a mirror so that anytime I use the command "install.packages",
it does not ask me for which mirror to use but go direct.
This is because of the error I keep on getting below and I dont know how to
solve it.
Please help.
Kind regards,
Lazarus
