Description

Hi, thanks for this useful environment. Do you know a way to use quarto in PowerPC?

I was not able to install from source

I currently run a docker image with rstudio in the IBM servers (https://github.com/ppc64le/build-scripts/tree/master/r/rstudio/Dockerfiles) but quarto freezes the rstudio session somehow. Probably, because not all “dependencies exist for that architecture”. This is at the very origin of my question.

and… Absolutely, this architecture is not at all an academic one. Is what the IBM Academics program provides only (probably my sentences was not correct en the previousbpost) I am also a 10+ years old academic and I agree with you.

Btw I will be happy yo share my experience with the dockerfile with rstudio and quarto if you want
