Leaving the rest of the email chain below for reference. I see two issues with the above output and your sources.list file: 1. "http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic/" is incorrect. It should be "http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran35/" 2. You are mixing Bionic and Cosmic, which we do not recommend.
