Thanks Dirk, that gets me one step further. However, there is still a
hurdle. It seems that (at least at the time of writing) the
impish-cran40/ repo is broken. Apt complains that cannot find the
Packages file:
Ign:13 https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu impish-cran40/
Translation-en_US
Fetched 538 B in 14s (38 B/s)
Reading package lists... Done
W: Conflicting distribution:
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu impish-cran40/ InRelease
(expected impish-cran40/ but got )
E: Failed to fetch
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/impish-cran40/Packages 404
Not Found [IP: 2600:9000:238d:3600:6:c2d3:f940:93a1 443]
I also tried forcing IPv4, just to be sure, but with the same result. In
fact, browsing to
https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/impish-cran40/Packages
shows that the file doesn't exist. For e.g. focal-cran40 it does exist.

Could you please try and see if you get the same error?
Best,
Lennart.
