The instructions are correct as written, but the Ubuntu repositories do not have the latest production release of R, which may be required for your analysis work. For example, R-2.6.2 is available today from Ubuntu, but R-2.7.1 is available from CRAN. This change would prevent someone from using the latest Bioconductor version 2.3, which requires R-2.7.</p> <p>Here is the reference: <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/README">http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/README</a> The key step is the addition of the R-mirror which overrides the Ubuntu repository, and provides access to the latest production release. I used: <a href="http://cran.wustl.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu/hardy/">http://cran.wustl.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu/hardy/</a></p> <p>Hope this information helps someone!</p> I wanted to add a small enhancement to the instructions noted above.
