Hi Kevin,

The package is in Ubuntu. Ubuntu uses the standard packages, 20.04 is still
at R 3.6.* so the package _for use within the Ubuntu distro_ is built against
that R version and hence has 'r-api-3.5' as a (virtual) depends to signal use
with R 3.6.* (R 3.5.* and R 3.6.* were binary compatible so the label was not
increased.)

You seem to have one of the rare packages _not_ shadowed by Michael in
excellent c4d4u4.0+ repo.

So you have to install from source. In which case I would try to mix and
match and get as much as you can from c2d4u4.0+, and install the rest
old-school by hand from CRAN.

Michael:  Shall we try to mark this as a virtual TODO and maybe use RcppAPT
or another interface into the package pool to find packages that are in fact
in Debian/Ubuntu but not in your otherwise excellent and complete repo?

| Depends: r-cran-bayestestr but it is not going to be installed
| Depends: r-cran-effectsize but it is not going to be installed
| Depends: r-cran-ggeffects but it is not going to be installed
| Depends: r-cran-parameters but it is not going to be installed
| Depends: r-cran-performance but it is not going to be installed
| Depends: r-cran-sjmisc but it is not going to be installed
| Depends: r-cran-sjstats but it is not going to be installed

| Many of the other packages can be installed (though sjstats has a further
| list of errors), but r-api-3.5 is not available.
| apt-cache show r-cran-sjplot

| Package: r-cran-sjplot
| Architecture: all
| Version: 2.8.2-1
| Priority: optional
| Section: universe/gnu-r
| Origin: Ubuntu
| Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss using lists.ubuntu.com>
| Original-Maintainer: Debian R Packages Maintainers <
| r-pkg-team using alioth-lists.debian.net>
| 
| Any suggestions on what I've got wrong here?

| Thanks!
