Hi Dave and Dirk, sorry, I do not understand half of this, as I do not use docker myself. Buf if Dirk does not use Debian buster as the basis for his Rocker container, then you should probably not try to install the backport to buster. Shouldn't these docker containers be there to avoid the need to install R?
