Hi Paul $ sudo apt-file search /usr/lib/R/library/base/html/00Index.html
tells me that this file is in r-base-html. do you have that package installed? r-base recommends r-base-html, but it does not depend on it. Installing recommended packages is the default on Debian systems, in contrast to suggested packages. You can check what you have using $ apt-config dump | grep Recommends APT::Install-Recommends "1"; Kind regards, Johannes Am Freitag, 29.
