I am trying to install lubridate
in R on ubuntu. I am getting below error. Understand from other sources that this is something to do with my system. Can you please help me to overcome this issue:

I ran into the same error attempting to install lubridate today in R version 2.15.3 on Red Hat. After I saw your question I went to CRAN to check the release date of the latest version (1.3.2) of lubridate. That release date was 11-26-2013 - just a few days ago. From the lubridate archive page , I downloaded the archive for the previous version, lubridate_1.3.1.tar.gz, which was released 10-31-2013.
Using the command -
R CMD INSTALL lubridate_1.3.1.tar.gz
I was able to install lubridate 1.3.1 in my R 2.15.3 installation.
If you read the error and have the same message as me:
"Error in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]) : namespace 'Rcpp' 0.12.12 is being loaded, but >= 0.12.13 is required"
You probably need to install first the Rcpp
package and then try to install the lubridate
package...it worked for me!
For Windows, get the latest version here: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/lubridate/index.html
And install with install.packages(path_to_file, repos = NULL, type="source")
