[R-sig-Debian] Having both R-current and R-devel installed on Ubuntu

[John C Nash]

On any CRAN mirror go to the "Download R for Linux" link, then to Ubuntu. There you will
find information on how to link to a PPA for your version of Ubuntu. This doesn't deal
with the patched version, however. FYI, it's worth installing the GPG signature.
