How to update RStudio desktop on Ubuntu 22.041LTS

RStudio IDE
1

Hello Everyone,

I use Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
R and Rstudio work fine, but I would like to update RStudio to a newer version.
Do I only need to download the appropriate .deb file.
locate it in the "dowloaded files" folder , then open it . and that's all ?

will all the files and dependencies from the older version be updated ?

or is there a special procedure to update RStudio in a clean way ?

thanks to community in advance for your help.

Yes, downloading the .deb file and installing it the usual way should do the job. As long as you are not upgrading R, the installed libraries will remain visible in RStudio.
