Hi,

I am using R studio on R-base 3.0.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Now I need to install "ez" package which require later version like 3.2.0. I tried to upgrade R-base 3.0.2 into 3.2.0 through terminal but got failed. So I downloaded R-3.2.0tar.gz package and installed it on my system. R 3.2.0 is now installed on my system but I am unable to integrate it with Rstudio. Can anyone suggest me how to integrate R studio with the new installed R3.2.0 in its console.


Thanks,
Narendra

There is really no need to compile R from source. Instead, run this in
your terminal:

sudo apt-add-repository -y "deb http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/ubuntu `lsb_release -cs`/"
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E084DAB9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r-base-dev


Regards,
Yihui
