Have you tried adding the repo yourself and installing:

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/

Sorry I can not able to do it as I am very new in UBUNTU Please tell me manually or tell me to install through the UBUNTU software center , please.
I am a student of statistics and I need it crucially.
Please help me.

Missing libraries seem to be fixed in Debian but not in Ubuntu.
Bug #576244

Last changelog entry from 03 Nov 2010, package looks a little orphaned.

Who can I solve it as I am very new in UBUNTU and R - commender is crucially needed to me.Please help me.
I noticed 3 person review R commender in the UBUNTU software center that means they can install it .So why I could not ?
please help me .

Run this in the terminal:

sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.orig

echo 'deb http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ natty/' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/r-project.sources.list

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install r-base

in ubuntu, open the terminal by pressing CTL+ALT+T

triple click on the first line wojox gave then go into the terminal window and press your middle mouse button (or scroll wheel) to copy the lines there then press enter.

do the above step for each of the lines wojox gave.

this will install R for you.

if you have any problems, post on this website again.

In terminal it provides

tahsin@tahsin-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install r-base
