I am trying to install R in my machine ubuntu 14.10 When I type : sudo apt-get install littler I got this error:

Lecture des listes de paquets... Fait
Construction de l'arbre des dépendances       
Lecture des informations d'état... Fait
E: Impossible de trouver le paquet littler

When I type this: sudo apt-get install r-base

I got this error:

E: Impossible de trouver le paquet r-base

Could you please help me to solve this problem.

Solution

  • Please do : $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install r-base littler

    If no luck, new links are required in /etc/apt/sources.list

    ( Ubuntu 14.10 is not supported any more : End of life.)

    $ sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

    Then replace all text with these 8 new lines :

    deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic main restricted
    deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic multiverse universe
    deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-updates main restricted
    deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-updates multiverse universe
    deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-backports main restricted
