[R] Does R version 3.4.4 work on Ubuntu 18.04.1

[Ashim Kapoor]

Dear Rui,

I am a little confused.

See this ---> : R 3.4 packages for Ubuntu on i386 and amd64 are available
for all stable Desktop releases of Ubuntu prior to Bionic Beaver (18.04)
until their official end of life date. However, only the latest Long Term
Support (LTS) release is fully supported. As of June 11, 2018 the supported
releases are Artful Aardvark (17.10), Xenial Xerus (16.04; LTS), and Trusty
Tahr (14.04; LTS).

Bionic Beaver ( Ubuntu 18.04 ) is NOT in the list of supported releases for
R 3.4  What does this mean ? Can you please clarify ?

Many thanks,
Ashim
