I apologize in advance if I missed some obvious rookie mistake I did. I tried installing rattle both through R terminal with the install.packages command and both with 

wajig install r-cran-rattle

neither worked: In the first case it downloaded some tar.gz to a temp folder but didn't install anything, in the second one it says that is Unable to locate package r-cran-rattle. I'm attaching some screenshot to better showcase what I tried to do and what kind of messages I'm getting:

In the end, when I try the rattle command in R terminal it always says that it cannot find the function rattle. Thanks in advance to whoever will help me. Best regards, Andrea.

Thanks for the query.

Rattle has installed just fine. You need to load the rattle package into the library each time you start up R using library(rattle). The call to rattle() should then work.

In general, the steps to install Rattle (with the GUI functionality provided by RGtk2) should be:

$ wajig install r-recommended
$ R
> install.packages("rattle")
> install.packages("RGtk2")
> library(rattle)
> rattle()

A number of other packages will be automatically installed too.

To then install the latest development (but quite stable) release:

> install.packages("rattle", repos="https://rattle.togaware.com", type="source")
