Hi!

I have Pop_OS! 22.04 which is basically Ubuntu.
rig system detect-platform reports:

Detected platform:
Architecture: x86_64
OS: linux
Distribution: pop
Version: 22.04

And of course rig available outputs:

[ERROR] Cannot download JSON: HTTP status client error (404 Not Found) for url (https://api.r-hub.io/rversions/available/linux-pop-22.04/x86_64)

So I wonder,is it possible to somehow override entry Distibution and instead pop place ubuntu?

Also, can I add R version which existed on my system before installing rig to the list of installed and switchable R's?

Probably possibility to rig add <filename> would also help in my case, I see it's on TODO list: #1

And BTW: great job, many thanks!

Masquerade PopOS as Ubuntu

Issue: r-lib#277

PopOS is not supported by api.r-hub.io yet but PopOS is essentially just
Ubuntu (in the context of installing R) so we masquerade it as that.

@Nerwosolek I've opened a PR that does s/pop/ubuntu when determining the distro but see also this comment (you can set the RIG_PLATFORM env var to ubuntu-22.04 and that should do the trick).

e.g. RIG_PLATFORM=ubuntu-22.04 rig add release
