I'm trying to get RStudio (Desktop) up and running on a Samsung XE303C12 running Ubuntu 14.04. This machine has a duel-core ARM processor inside. This is the process I have followed so far.
- Installed R using the Ubuntu Software Centre. - Downloaded RStudio source code in the form of 'rstudio-rstudio-v0.98.952-0-g47edc6d.tar.gz' from rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download and unpacked it. - While installing the common dependencies, I run the following script: #!/bin/bash # # install-pandoc # # Copyright (C) 2009-12 by RStudio, Inc. # # Unless you have received this program directly from RStudio pursuant # to the terms of a commercial license agreement with RStudio, then # this program is licensed to you under the terms of version 3 of the # GNU Affero General Public License.

Find out I need to install the Haskell platform. - From this site 'http://www.haskell.org/platform/linux.html' learn that I need to install GHC 7.6.3 prior to building the Haskell platform. - Under 'Source Distribution' reads "The source distribution needs an installed GHC (version 7.0 at least). If your platform isn't currently supported with a binary distribution, then you'll need to consult the section on Porting GHC <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Porting> in the Building Guide." Since this is all pretty new to me, I would like to seek clarification before I decide whether or not to go further down this (rocky) path. Am I required to port GHC across to ARM/Linux in order to install RStudio on my machine? Kind regards, Chris [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
