In cases like this just take the set of packages and pass them directly to
'sudo apt-get install' ie
$ sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-core r-base-dev r-cran-rpart r-recommended which will show which packages this will install (as new), upgrade, or
remove, if any.  It still allows you to pack out if you so choose.
In this case it is probably 'just' a fortran or c++ library transition. If you are still running gutsy you are also now two Ubuntu releases behind so
you may want to consider upgrading to hardy and/or intrepid.
By the way, this would have a good question for the r-sig-debian list.

Hi,

  I encountered similar problems:

apt-get install r-base-core
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 r-base-core: Depends: tcl8.5 (>= 8.5.0) but it is not installable
              Depends: tk8.5 (>= 8.5.0) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

/etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu/ gutsy-security main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu/ gutsy-security restricted main multiverse universe

deb http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu/ gutsy universe main
deb-src http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu/ gutsy universe main
deb http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates universe main
deb-src http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates universe main

deb http://cran.ms.unimelb.edu.au/bin/linux/ubuntu gutsy/

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-security universe main
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-security universe main


It seems that R2.8.0 for gutsy is built on a system with tcl8.5 and tk8.5, which is not available in gutsy?

From the CRAN Ubuntu README:

>>>
Installation and compilation of R or some its packages may require Ubuntu packages from the "backports" repositories. In particular, this is the case for Tcl/Tk 8.5 on Gutsy and Hardy. Therefore, it is suggested to activate the backports repositories with an entry like

deb http://<my.favorite.ubuntu.mirror>/ hardy-backports main restricted universe

in your /etc/apt/sources.list file. See http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors for the list of Ubuntu mirrors.

Best wishes,
