How to install the i386 version of R on ubuntu?

I already have the x64 version installed on the server, but I need the 32-bit version to use a library that is on the same version.

Solution

I would recommend installing VirtualBox, and running a 32 bit Ubuntu version in that. This is much more straightforward than trying to run 32 bit software on a 64 bit OS. When you have the 32 bit OS installed, you can simply add this repository to your sources.list, and install the binary version of R.
