我正在尝试在Linux上安装和升级R（Ubuntu 16.04）。但是，我收到一个神秘的错误，并且无法诊断它。我在网上找到的最相似的错误是here。
完整错误位于帖子的底部。但是，问题的根源似乎在以下几行。
/var/lib/dpkg/info/r-base-core.postinst: 1: /var/lib/dpkg/info/r-base-core.postinst: paperconf: not found
dpkg: error processing package r-base-core (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
整个输出如下。
