So I now have this on my laptop edd@brad:~$ apt-cache policy r-base-core r-base-core: Installed: 3.4.2-1zesty0.1 Candidate: 3.4.2-1zesty0.1 Version table: *** 3.4.2-1zesty0.1 500 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/edd/misc/ubuntu zesty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.4.1-2zesty0 500 500 http://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu zesty/ Packages 3.4.1-1zesty0 500 500 http://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu zesty/ Packages 3.4.0-1zesty 500 500 http://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu zesty/ Packages 3.3.2-1 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty/universe amd64 Packages edd@brad:~$
and I have launched rebuilds for xenial (16.04) and trusty (14.04) which should complete, possibly after another level of adjustments. These use r-api-3 and work for the "here and now". Use sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:edd/misc We may propagate these for to the usual 'rrutter' and then CRAN repos too, and will take it from there to figure out how to get r-api-3.4. I'm sorry for the disruption. My hand was a little forced but I should have considered these consequences too.
