That is a question you have to ask RStudio, not us.

There is somebody trying to package it for Debian, but I am not sure how far

(For what it is worth, we now put the server and desktop .deb packages into a
local "inside-the-firewall-only" repo at work, so with that we are not
redistributing it.)
