Valentin,

Please check your file /etc/apt/sources.list. It seems you did not succeed to 
add a line for the CRAN repository there. As written in the README, there 
needs to be a line like

	deb http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian lenny/

This is for the master mirror, in order to distribute the load, it would be 
preferable if you could exchange http://cran.r-project.org with one of the 
mirror sites.

Kind regards,

Johannes
