You can also just paste the ftp link into your browser.

Yeah.  Sorry.  It's the R-release queue.

That could be useful information, but when I tried just now I could not 
get curl to work:

> curl -s ftp://win-builder.r-project.org/R-release/
> curl: /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by curl)
> curl: relocation error: curl: symbol curl_mime_headers version CURL_OPENSSL_4 not defined in file libcurl.so.4 with link time reference

I then tried

    sudo apt update
    sudo apt upgrade
    sudo apt install curl

according to some instructions that I found on the web.  It told me "

> curl is already the newest version (7.58.0-2ubuntu3.8).

I then did

curl --version

and got

> curl: relocation error: curl: symbol curl_mime_headers version CURL_OPENSSL_4 not defined in file libcurl.so.4 with link time reference

I've Googled about a bit and found various references, but nothing that 
I could understand or use.

I don't understand what's going on/wrong.  Nor do I understand why the 
Computer Gods hate me! :-)


cheers,

Rolf
