At first I would recommend to install all updates to the system, remove packages marked for automatic removal using

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get autoremove --purge

Then install the R package by

sudo apt-get install --reinstall r-base-dev

Then you should know that RStudio provides correctly build deb-package for supported Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver), you can install it with

cd ~/Downloads
wget -c https://download1.rstudio.org/desktop/bionic/amd64/rstudio-1.4.1717-amd64.deb

sudo apt-get install ./rstudio-1.4.1717-amd64.deb

that time using Ubuntu 18.04LTS with KDE plasma (might probably compatible issue), but now using Kubuntu 20.04LST, installed...

# update indices
apt update -qq

install two helper packages we need


apt install --no-install-recommends software-properties-common dirmngr


import the signing key (by Michael Rutter) for these repo


apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E298A3A825C0D65DFD57CBB651716619E084DAB9


add the R 4.0 repo from CRAN -- adjust 'focal' to 'groovy' or 'bionic' as needed


add-apt-repository "deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs)-cran40/"

source :https://cloud.r-project.org/

:~$ wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/rstudio-ide-build/desktop/bionic/amd64/rstudio-1.4.1717-amd64.deb
:~$ sudo dpkg -i rstudio-1.4.1717-amd64.deb
