[R] Problem with r project in ubuntu xenial

[George Balas]

-Well it seems that it is getting "el_GR.UTF-8" but still I am not able to
read files written in greek, there are only "????" instead of letters.
-Also, I forgot to mention that I do load igraph library when I try
"graph_from_adjacency_matrix".
When I check igraph in packages dialog I can not see functions with
underscores between words, only dots.
