Recently I had to update R from 3.4.4 to 3.5 for installing bioconductor packages. For doing that I followed the steps on this link.
But now I have the problem that r studio do not work for the problem:
R shared library (/usr/local/lib/R/lib/libR.so) not found. If this is
a custom build of R, was it built with the --enable-R-shlib option?
For that reason I tried to reinstall R 3.4.4 with the command:
sudo apt-get install r-base
But it returns me this error:
Reading package lists... Done

Does anyone know how to remove completely R (3.5) and installing again the 3.4 version?
Thank you all.
Edit: R works on command line with the 3.5 version and I cannot install other packages like:
$ sudo apt-get install libgdal-dev

I was having trouble with R packages so I decided to uninstall to do fresh install. Now I cannot even re-install R. I am using Linux Mint. what I did is:
Removed all directories found with .libPaths()
And in the terminal:
sudo apt-get remove r-base-core
sudo apt-get remove r-base
sudo apt-get autoremove
Now when I try to install R following https://cran.r-project.org/ tutorial, I get many errors:
sudo apt update -qq
E: The repository 'https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu una-cran40/ Release' does not have a Release file.
apt install --no-install-recommends r-base

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:

What's wrong?
I'm trying to install R from the terminal following this site:
https://www.r-bloggers.com/how-to-install-r-on-linux-ubuntu-16-04-xenial-xerus/
When I execute sudo apt-get install r-base, I get the following error:

Add the two others to the command, and see the errors it generates, ie do
sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-core r-recommended
You likely you have something installed which conflicts. Many (and I mean thousands) of us run these packages just fine.
You can also consider the r-sig-debian mailing list.

Any one knows how to solve this?
Try installing all at once
sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-core r-recommended r-base-html
but from your description is not clear how you manage to get into this situation in the first place. This should not happen under normal use.
So the libjpeg8 package on 10.04 has reached EOL.
Is there a way to locate and install the legacy package for this?

You can try the following commands.
sudo apt-get install -f
This would install any dependencies that your previous installs missed.
