Hi all, 
And after reading this issue, it seems there shouldn't be any problems installing with Rstudio. FWIW, I tried installing r-essentials and Rstudio within conda, but wasn't able to get the conda version of Rstudio to open. I've run the following diagnostic commands in Rstudio as requested. System details RStudio Edition: Desktop RStudio Version: latest from website (file: RStudio-1.2.5019.dmg) OS Version: MacOS 10.15 R Version: whatever comes with RStudio-1.2.5019.dmg Steps to reproduce the problem Just install Rstudio.
I had installed r'base and rstudio and they worked fine on Mint Quianna.
Can not install r-base (E: unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.)
I use it in a course.
