https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/
To install additional packages, I am following these instructions:
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/fullREADME.html
For Ubuntu 26.04 (Resolute Racoon), /etc/apt/sources.list is

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/. I started a file "r-package.sources" and need
entries for the last two fields. My file:
## R package repository
Types: deb
URIs: https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu
Suites: resolute-cran40
Components:
Signed-By:
It will also benefit other users if you can update the instructions in
fullREADME.html
Thanks,
Naresh
