Help installing mice on Ubuntu 22.04

[GreyMerchant]

Hi there,

I am having some issues installing mice for 4.0.2 on Ubuntu 22.04. Any idea what to change or do differently to get it to work?

I'm not familiar with the package, but I do use Ubuntu. This page suggests:

install.packages("mice", dependencies = TRUE, quiet = TRUE)

Also, why choose the Microsoft R Open 4.0.2 and not the Ubuntu packages?
