Yes and no. The Rcmdr.sh is there because upstream ships it, but it isn't really executable and I'd rather not make it so -- it is after hidden quite far down the file hierarchy. Maybe you could just a two-liner in /usr/local/bin/, say /usr/local/bin/Rcmdr that contains #!/bin/sh sh /usr/lib/R/site-library/Rcmdr/etc/linux/Rcmdr.sh (minus the indentation) and you then load this ? You'd also have to place the .desktop file in the right place by hand, I can't do that easily for the package as all files belonging to the package end up below /usr/lib/R/site-library/Rcmdr Dirk | -- System Information: | Debian Release: squeeze/sid | APT prefers unstable | APT policy: (500, 'unstable') | Architecture: i386 (i686) | | Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) | Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) | Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash | | Versions of packages r-cran-rcmdr depends on: | ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries | ii r-base-core 2.10.1-2 GNU R core of statistical computat | ii r-cran-abind 1.1.0-4 GNU R abind multi-dimensional arra | ii r-cran-car 1.2-16-2 GNU R Companion to Applied Regress | ii r-cran-effects 2.0.10-1 GNU R graphical and tabular effect | ii r-cran-lmtest 0.9.26-1 GNU R package for diagnostic check | ii r-cran-mgcv 1.6-1-1 GNU R package for multiple paramet | ii r-cran-multcomp 1.1-3-1 GNU R package for multiple compari | ii r-cran-mvtnorm 0.9-8-1 GNU R package to compute multivari | ii r-cran-relimp 1.0-1-2 GNU R package for inference on rel | ii r-cran-rgl 0.87-2 GNU R package for three-dimensiona | ii r-cran-sm 2.2-3-2 GNU R package for kernel smoothing | ii r-cran-strucchange 1.3-7-2 GNU R package for structural chang | | r-cran-rcmdr recommends no packages. | | Versions of packages r-cran-rcmdr suggests: | ii r-cran-rodbc 1.3-1-2 GNU R package for ODBC database ac | | -- no debconf information | | -- Three out of two people have difficulties with fractions. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
