Simplify list of prerequisites for Ubuntu and Fedora #124

Closed llrs closed 1 year ago

llrs commented 1 year ago

I added the command to find the list of prerequisites for Ubuntu and Fedora and also how to install them without installing R via the OS package manager.

Currently the macOS section is empty, there is not even a "In progress" note. Should I document that?

Let me know if I missed some other comments from the meeting, @hturner.
