I want to install RStudio from the .rpm provided on the official website.
On Fedora repositories there are rstudio
and a rstudio-desktop
which consequently I want to ignore.
I inserted the following line in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
as suggested here
exclude=R-*, rstudio-*
The problem is that now I cannot install the .rpm I have downloaded from the RStudio website.
In particular it says:
$ sudo dnf install ./rstudio-1.4.1717-x86_64.rpm
Last metadata expiration check: 2:36:31 ago on Wed 23 Jun 2021 15:22:59 CEST.
No match for argument: rstudio-1.4.1717-x86_64.rpm
Error: Unable to find a match
It looks like dnf is also ignoring local .rpm files.
Should I first install the file from local .rpm, and then put the line in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
?
What if a new RStudio version comes out, and I download a new .rpm file from their website?
Should I remove the line from `dnf.conf’, install the new version from local .rpm file, and put the line back again?
