Thanks Rolf, I'm running this on Ubuntu Hardy Heron, and as far as I can tell from http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=r-base&searchon=names&suite=hardy§ion=all , v2.6.2 is the version they have available. The painless upgrade for me is to use 'aptitude' to get v2.7.x, otherwise I have to build it from scratch...
Unless you know of a repository of binaries that has v2.7.x?
