This was an issue with a bunch of packages when R moved to the 2.14 series. A number of packages had to be rebuilt to fix the NAMESPACE issue.

So this is an issue with your r-cran-ggplot2 package. The problem is I am not sure where you are getting the package from. ggplot2 is not on the CRAN Ubuntu pages and my cran2deb4ubutu project does not support lucid. Where are you downloading the r-cran-ggplot2 package from?

Here is what I did to ensure the packages were up-to-date:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-core r-cran-ggplot2 r-cran-proto

Here is what my sources list and dpkg list looks like:

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/r-cran.list
deb http://cran.wustl.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu lucid/

$ dpkg -l r-base r-base-core r-cran-ggplot2 r-cran-proto
