Thanks. I thought that apt-get will get these dependencies automatically and
I think is something broken in there.
That is why I send the message.
For the moment I just installed the lucid version so I can start learning
it.
Thanks

Dear Valentin,
You can get that version of libzma2 from here
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hu/maverick/i386/liblzma2
or here
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hu/maverick/amd64/liblzma2
and install it manually (say, with the GDebi package installer). Then
R will install without any more trouble.
I hope that this helps,
Jay

Valentin,
While Jay's solution works, there should be no need to download a
version of liblzma2 manually, as the correct version is contained within
the default maverick repositories. Not sure why your system is not
finding the package, but there are a couple of possibilities. The first
is that your /etc/apt/sources.list file has an error, a line being
commented out accidentally, for example. Another possibility is that a
previous update (of any ubuntu package, not just R) failed to finish.
Try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' from the command line to make sure all
updates and installs have properly finished.
Hope this helps,
Michael
