问题
Hello I am trying to install r-base for Ubuntu 16.04.
I have followed the steps at https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/README.html
However I am getting a 'unmet dependencies' error when I run sudo apt-get install r-base
The following packages have unmet dependencies: r-base : Depends: r-recommended (= 3.4.4-1xenial0) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Any ideas for getting around this? Thanks in advance!
回答1:
Running the following commands seems to have solved my problem:
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Running the following fixed it for me, but this solution uses r-base-dev not r-base (r-base still didn't work).
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install r-base-dev
Make sure to check in the software and properties that if your restricted and universe repositories are enabled. Here's a link with more information.
