Hi - I do have exactly the same problem with the same distribution
(Ubuntu Feisty amd64) and am unable to upgrade to R 2.5.1. The
r-base-core is version 2.4.1 in Ubuntu depositories while all others
r-cran related packages are upgraded to R 2.5.1 (r-base-dev, r-base...).
So far I have been unsuccessful at upgrading R. I posted on the Ubuntu
forum but got no answer yet.
Details:
