Michael,
Sounds great!
If it's any help, I put my solution in a bash script:
#!/bin/bash
KEY=/usr/local/share/keyrings/marutter.key
if [ -f "$KEY" ]; then
echo "$KEY already exists"
sudo apt install -y r-base
else
wget -q -O marutter.key
"https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xe298a3a825c0d65dfd57cbb651716619e084dab9"
if ! file marutter.key | grep -q "PGP public key"; then
echo "marutter.key does not appear to be a valid PGP key -
aborting!"
exit 1
else
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/keyrings/
sudo mv marutter.key /usr/local/share/keyrings/
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/local/share/keyrings/marutter.key]
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu groovy-cran40/" | sudo tee -a
/etc/apt/sources.list
fi
sudo apt install -y r-base
fi
Nothing fancy by any means, but it works and could perhaps be useful.
Cheers,
Carl

(https://manpages.debian.org/testing/apt/apt-key.8.en.html), I recently got
around to figuring out how to properly import Michael Rutter's key, based on
this answer over at askubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/a/1307181.
