[R-sig-Debian] R-SIG-Debian Digest, Vol 35, Issue 1

[COREY SPARKS]

R won't appear under the applications.  Go to the terminal (in the accessories menu) and type R.  It will run in command line.
You might also want to install r-base-dev if you want to compile libraries.

I followed the instructions to update sources.list, and then executed:

 sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install r-base

The latter line seemed to run without any errors but I can't start
R. It does not appear under Applications. I admit to being newbie
as far as Linux is concerned.
