I have tried to remove an older version of R (3.4.4) to move to a newer one for this Ubuntu 20.04 installation. As you can see when trying to invoke R I am not getting any installation. When I install r-base-core it notes that it is already there and then trying to call R still doesn't work.
I have tried the steps listed here: Complete remove and reinstall R, including all packages . I have also tried to search for R remnants and delete but so far not working. Any advice?

Does have someone the same issue?
i'm trying to install Rstudio, so downloaded the current version and i got the following:
It is worth mentioning that I had several previous versions of Rstudio downloaded so I renamed it as rstudio-new

I already tried sudo apt-get update and sudo apt get-install (libssl version) as well as trying to install previous versions and I have not been successful in any :( the info of my pc is:
I have tried other things as well, such as downloading several versions of libssl, but I have not been successful either:

Does anyone by chance know what is causing this? It should be mentioned that I already had (a long time ago) R and Rstudio but I had to uninstall them because I didn't use them, but now I do need them
Same problem here. I have solved it installing a daily release of the next version.
We followed instructions here - https://rtask.thinkr.fr/installation-of-r-4-0-on-ubuntu-20-04-lts-and-tips-for-spatial-packages/ - to uninstall R:
sudo apt-get purge r-base* r-recommended r-cran-*
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt update
...seems to have worked because when we run R in command line we get -bash: /usr/bin/R: No such file or directory. However, when we try to install R using:
apt install --no-install-recommends r-base
...version 3.6.3 is installed, not version 4.0 or 4.1. Here is our machine type.
What can we do to get R version 4.1.0 (preferred) installed on our machine? I am worried that, perhaps it is not possible as if it were, v4 would be the default rather than v3... might it be the case that 16.04 is too old for R v4?
Edit: followed the instructions in the comment below, but ran into the following issue:
Very recently I shifted to Ubuntu from Windows and downloaded R-base (3.4.4) and R studio. However, some packages (car, ROCR etc) were not available and hence I tried to update R. Because of error messages, I finally tried to uninstall and remove R and then install it again.
I tried
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt install r-base
However, it is showing me error message like,

So basically right now, I have no R-base installed.
I tried to remove R-base.
sudo apt-get remove r-base
And all I am getting is-

I am a beginner in both R and Linux. I need your valuable suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
If you are using Ubuntu 18.04, please follow these steps if you are using your local machine of your own. (If your are working in any office environment please setup proxy and follow these steps)
1) Let’s first add the relevant GPG key
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E298A3A825C0D65DFD57CBB651716619E084DAB9
2) Add the R Repository
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran40/'
3) Update Package Lists
sudo apt update
4) Install R
sudo apt install r-base
5) Test Install
sudo -i R
6) Installing R Packages from CRAN
install.packages('dplyr')
I want to be able to install the latest stable R release for Ubuntu 18.04, I had the ubuntu version installed and so I removed it and then followed several guides like in this link.
No matter what I do I get the following output when I issue a sudo apt-get install r-base:
sudo apt install r-base

I tried using command sodu apt install qtbase-abi-5 to find the package but failed. I then download the .deb package from https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/16.04/ubuntu-updates-main-amd64/libqt5core5a_5.5.1+dfsg-16ubuntu7.5_amd64.deb.html but it was not work, the page show that this .deb package provide the qtbase-abi-5 package. Interestingly, I can find few information about this error by google. Some info from Ask ubuntu forum say that it seems the qtbase-abi-5 is not included in libqt5core5a.
I don't know how to fix it. Can you give me some suggestion or some link which do can download qtbase-abi-5 ?
Thanks #GAD3R for your answer, I am sorry that it fails.
