I am unable to install ggplot2 in R 3.0.2 on Ubuntu.
When I run
install.packages('ggplot2',dependencies = TRUE)
I get the following error.
> install.packages('ggplot2',dependencies = TRUE)

I also tried
install.packages(c('reshape2','scales'))
Get the error that plyr is not available.
I also upgraded Ubuntu and also reinstalled latest version of R and updated the packages using update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE).
But, nothing worked. What can I do?

You need to comment out require(ibmdbR) Then you will need to restart RStudio and you will be able to install ggplot2 Once done you can modify the . Rprofile once more and uncomment the changes and restart R Studio again and everything will be back to normal with the addition of your newly installed ggplot2 .
The ggplot2 package can be easily installed using the R function install. packages() . The above code will automatically download the ggplot2 package, from the CRAN (Comprehensive R Archive Network) repository, and install it.
If you do not need the latest version, you can install the packaged version distributed by Ubuntu by using:
sudo apt-get install r-cran-ggplot2
I fixed this problem by typing these command:
$ sudo apt-get install r-cran-plyr
$ sudo apt-get install r-cran-reshape2
