Indeed, the instructions at CRAN work (with the small addition that one
needs to be a superuser to edit the software sources). The confusion
arose because the c2d4u PPA is the main search result when googling
"upgrade R 3.0.1 ubuntu".

Jeff, Andrew,
When you come up with a solution to the upgrade problem, please send it
to me. I have a similiar problem under Mint, which is an Unbuntu fork.
Thank you,
John

"Apparently"? How is this apparent? I don't see this mentioned at CRAN
[1]. Why would you reference some perhaps well-intentioned but possibly
untrustworthy person's website when you could be downloading from a
vetted distribution source?

I am trying to upgrade to R 3.0.1, and I am working on ubuntu.
Apparently, the new version is available in the following ppa:
https://launchpad.net/~marutter/+archive/c2d4u. I have added this ppa
to my software sources.
I then run the typical sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get
dist-upgrade,
and R fails to upgrade from 2.15.2 to 3.0.1. I then manually try to
sudo apt-get install r-base-dev, which does not recognize that a new
version is available from the newly-installed ppa.
I have tried using the GUI Software Center as well -- it lists R as
installed, and makes no mention of the new version.
Could someone be so kind as to post step-by-step instructions for
actually installing R 3.0.1? Given issues with graphics in R2.15.2
with
Ubuntu 13.04, I am sure that this will be useful to people besides me.
Thanks,
Andrew
