[R][Doc] minor error in Linux installation documentation ('conda' option) for R on CRAN #32512

@asfimport

Description

@asfimport

The documentation for the Linux installation for the r-arrow binary for R is at:

    https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/arrow/vignettes/install.html

The documentation indicates that the 'conda' installation syntax should be:

``

conda install -c conda-forge --strict-channel-priority r-arrow

``

I can't get that to work.  What works for me is:

conda config --set channel_priority strict
conda install -c conda-forge r-arrow

I'm wondering if the syntax presented in the documentation is either deprecated or incorrect.

Environment: Ubuntu 20.04
