Did you compile R from source before you used apt-get?  If you remove R 
with apt-get and are still able to run R, something is wrong with your 
system.  I would remove R with apt-get, reboot the machine, and if you 
can still run R, try to find where it is located ("which R") and try 
removing that version as well.
