Installing R Studio on Ubuntu 22.04

Question

I installed Ubuntu 22.04 and R. Now I'm trying to install R Studio .

After download it I tried to install with

sudo gdebi rstudio-2022.02.1-461-amd64.deb

But I received the message

Dependency is not satisfiable: libssl1.0.0|libssl1.0.2|libssl1.1

Is there any way to work around it?

Answer 1

Edit #1: I've solved the dependency problem by going to https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/amd64/libssl1.1/download and installing 'libssl1.1' from there. Unfortunately, I've encountered another problem; I'll post another edit as soon as I've solved it, or if I've given up on trying to solve it.

Edit #2: I've solved the aforementioned problem by running rstudio --no-sandbox to open RStudio.

My Original Answer:

This isn't a solution, but I have the same problem. I was missing 'libclang-dev' and 'libpq5' as well, but I was able to get them via sudo apt install . I couldn't get 'libssl1.1', however:

Package libssl1.1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libssl1.1' has no installation candidate

I tried 'libssl1.0.2' and 'libssl1.0.0' as well, but got the same result. After doing some research and trying out different things, I found that I have 'libssl3'; I suspect that having a more recent version of 'libssl' is related to the problem, but I'm not an expert on this stuff and it could just be a stupid guess for all I know.

Also, when I run sudo apt install -f ./rstudio-2022.02.1-461-amd64.deb , I get:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 rstudio : Depends: libssl1.0.0 but it is not installable or
                    libssl1.0.2 but it is not installable or
                    libssl1.1 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I initially ran sudo dpkg -i rstudio-2022.02.1-461-amd64.deb , and I had to run sudo apt --fix-broken install afterwards; it was after then that I tried and successfully installed the two other missing packages. Yep, I basically don't know what I'm doing and I just try solving these technological problems through trial and error, although I've almost never been as stumped as I am now.

Answer 2

So I had the same problem about the "Dependency is not satisfiable",

You can just update Rstudio with the last daily update https://dailies.rstudio.com/

Answer 3

I don't have a good enough reputation to comment, apparently, so posting an 'answer'. I have installed RStudio on 22.04 without problem (well, not without problem--I have to add some startup paramters to make it load properly on Wayland). Here's what APT reports as available for me:

$ apt-cache search libssl | grep libssl1

libssl1.1 - Secure Sockets Layer toolkit - shared libraries

And it seems to be installed okay:

$ dpkg -s libssl1.1

Are you able to confirm you have the same candidate package listed? Maybe your APT sources didn't update correctly? Here's what's currently in my /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy main restricted                                      

deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy-updates main restricted

deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy universe
deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy-updates universe

deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy multiverse
deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy-updates multiverse

deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy-backports main restricted universe multiverse

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security main restricted
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security universe
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security multiverse

If yours is the same, maybe you have something in /etc/apt/sources.list.d that should have been disabled on upgrade and wasn't?

Answer 4

The issue is already solved in the daily code since 27th of April. Install any daily after that and it works . No news yet of when stable version will be released though.

Answer 5

The missing libraries may now be installed from libssl1.1_1.1.1l-1ubuntu1.3_amd64.deb , which may now be found on https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/21.10/ubuntu-updtes-main-amd64/ .

I have used Arronax to add --no-sandbox to the command-line, in rstudio.desktop , in place of --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox which did not work.
