Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid) 下 安装 rattle

最好升级 R 到最新版本，可加入如下的 deb 源。

deb http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/R/CRAN/bin/linux/ubuntu lucid/

需要 key：

$ gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key E084DAB9
$ gpg -a --export E084DAB9 | sudo apt-key add -

$ sudo apt-get update

A common issue is the need to install the GTK development packages so that R can compile the required packages.

$ sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libxml2-dev

Then install the Rattle package

> install.packages("rattle")

启动
> library(rattle)
> rattle()

如若出现如下的错误

(R:4528): Gtk-WARNING **: Unknown property: GtkMenuBar.ubuntu-local
Error: attempt to apply non-function
In addition: Warning message:
In method(obj, ...) : Unknown internal child: selection

这样启动

> library(rattle)
> crv$rattleUI <- "rattle_macosx.ui"
> rattle()

根据提示，或许需要安装 XML 和 carioDevice 包，照做就是。
