isn't xenial a 16.04/16.10 vesrion and not 17.xx (artful)?
the codes mentions xenial in several places:
wget https://download1.rstudio.org/rstudio-xenial-1.1.383-amd64.deb
sudo gdebi rstudio-xenial-1.1.383-amd64.deb
Is it alright?
Thanks for the explanation. Similar to the R-blogger post setup.
@SuperHubert, RStudio verison for xenial from website says for Ubuntu 16.04+ -- check website/html link

I'm using the latest 1.1.453 /Ubuntu 17.10
I've been running into problems installing R on Ubuntu 17 for quite a while now. Line #3 did the trick! Thanks!
Great!! Thanks!!
