Installing on GNU/Linux

Debian GNU/Linux is the premier GNU/Linux system. R has been packaged for Debian by Dirk Eddelbuettel, and is part of the main Debian distribution. To install, enter the following command into a terminal window:

$ wajig install r-recommended

This will install a basic system. There are though over 95 individual R packages to add to your installation as you need. These include, for example:

$ wajig install r-cran-cluster r-cran-hmisc r-cran-rcmdr r-cran-rpart

To install most of those available:

$ wajig listnames ^r- > Rpackages
$ wajig install-file Rpackages

Other packages can be installed from the CRAN archives directly using the install.packages function. See Section 12.6.2 for details.

Support further development through the purchase of the PDF version of the book.
