[Rcpp-devel] Problem installing Rcpp version 0.12.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

[Pierre Lafaye de Micheaux]

Thank you again. Indeed I failed to compile Rccp from source (even with 
R version 3.2.3).
But I will definitely look at what you propose. I was happy with my DELL 
XPS13 Developer Edition Ubuntu laptop but I will really need to upgrade 
at least to 14.04 ...

Best wishes

Pierre
