Matthieu,
Have you enabled backports in Ubuntu 8.04? As per the ubuntu page on CRAN:
Installation and compilation of R or some its packages may require
Ubuntu packages from the "backports" repositories. In particular, this
is the case for Tcl/Tk 8.5 on Gutsy and Hardy. Therefore, it is
suggested to activate the backports repositories with an entry like
deb http://<my.favorite.ubuntu.mirror>/ hardy-backports main
restricted universe
in your /etc/apt/sources.list file. See
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors for the list of Ubuntu
mirrors.
This should solve the problem,
Michael

Hello
I'm on Ubuntu 8.04 but I added in my source list some local mirror so I
have possibility to upgrade to R 2.8. However, it seems that there is a
dependency problem, (should install some liblapack libraries). This is
not the problem, I can keep R 2.7.
However, even if I'm not able to install R 2.8, the other packages:
-r-base-html
-r-base-doc
-r-doc-info
-r-doc-html
-r-doc-pdf
-some packages: kernsmooth, mgcv,
are still suggested to be installed. Will that not create some conflict
with package builded on R 2.8? Won't I have documentation for R 2.8
running on R 2.7?
Thanks!
Matthieu
