I did read that fine file.
I added the following line to my /etc/apt/sources.list file:

tmt-local2023% tail -2 /etc/apt/sources.list
# R sources
deb https://mirror.las.iastate.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu xenial/

Here is what apt says on my machine

tmt-local2024% apt-cache policy r-base-core r-base-core: Installed: 3.2.3-4 Candidate: 
3.2.3-4 Version table: *** 3.2.3-4 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu 
xenial/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status My long term habit is to stick to 
LTS versions, which currently is 16.04: "still running 16.10" is a different outlook. The 
system admins here tend to be more conservative than me. Again, thanks for any input. 
Getting this particular box straightened out quickly isn't critical, but I would like to 
understand the root of the issue. Terry T.
