This was discussed with Dirk and Richard in PM (unfortunately). Summary:

 - Debian packages are in great shape

 - Vincent Goulet and Michael Rutter build third-party packages for
Ubuntu in http://cran.US.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/

 - We do not seem to have a permanent Ubuntu maintainer right now who
has a look at them in Ubuntu?

If you ask me, this seems a little too big a step for this LTS, but
perhaps you can reorganize above third-party repo to maintain and test
packages directly in Ubuntu, so that we can promote them for 10.10?
Would that be acceptable, or do you despearately need this for 10.04?
(It seems to be an optional build dep)
