I used aptitude install to install the Ubuntu 11.10 oneiric package, which apparently I couldn’t install due to dependencies. In doing so, I deleted a few more libraries. I uninstalled Rstudio, but still cannot install R on my machine. I am on ubuntu and this is what I get while running sudo apt-get install r-base
The following packages have unsatisfied dependencies: r-base: Depends on r-base-core (> = 2.15.3-1quantal0), but it will not be installed Depends on: r-recommended (= 2.15.3-1quantal0), but it does not will be installed Recommended: r-base-html, but it will not be installed E: Failed to fix the problems, you had broken packages.
any ideas how to start from scratch and run R again?
More error logs: The following packages have unsatisfied r-base-core dependencies: Depends: libblas3, but it is not installed or libblas.so.3, but it is not installed or libatlas3-base, but it is not installed.
