well, what did it install? I just did the same on my machine, and it wanted to remove nvidia-glx-dev, which provides the headers for the proprietary driver I am using with my nvidia card, and it wanted to install mesa headers. So if you use the nvidia driver like me, you should not use the above line, but just apt-get install nvidia-glx-dev. Works fine over here on lenny, using the R 2.9.0 from CRAN.
