| This one is on me.  When R 4.0 came out, I wrote scripts to rebuild all 
| the r-cran-* packages, such as r-cran-sjplot, that the main Ubuntu 
| repository supplies so that the upgrade to 4.0 is a painless as possible 
| for users.  I also need to do this so as when I build packages for 
| c2d4u, all the dependencies are satisfied.
| 
| It appears I missed this one, and since it hasn't been a dependency for 
| any package I have built since, it didn't come to my attention.  It has 
| been corrected an r-cran-sjplot can be installed on Focal.

Great news! And I see it now via `apt update -qq; apt-cache policy r-cran-sjplot`.

| Yes, sounds like a good project to tackle after the semester ends.

Always easy to schedule commitments "infinitely far away" :)

Thanks again for the quick fix!
