Description Oliver Sampson 2020-05-19 12:40:04 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 31

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade from Fedora 30 to 31
2. Run rstudio
3. No command found

Actual results:
Command not found

Expected results:
Command found.

Additional info:
I installed rstudio on my machine some time ago (link in ls says 2017). After upgrading to Fedora 31, rstudio won't run despite being in the /usr/bin.

Poking around I see a broken link:
/usr/bin/rstudio -> /usr/lib/rstudio/bin/rstudio

Which apparently should have been updated to:
/usr/libexec/rstudio/bin/rstudio 

I reckon the update didn't update the link in the script.

FWIW, this could have happened in Fedora 29 or 30. I haven't used RStudio in while.

Comment 1 Iñaki Ucar 2020-05-19 12:51:45 UTC
RStudio is in our repositories only for F31+. If you had RStudio in F30 and before, it's because you installed the package provided by RStudio manually. So there's nothing to update: you should uninstall that package before installing the one provided in F31+.
