This usually happens when the Ubuntu version of R falls behind the
R-project version of R. There is no organized effort to back port CRAN
packages. Best thing to do is use the CRAN apt repository for R so you
keep in sync with CRAN packages.

My sources.list includes:

deb http://cran.stat.ucla.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu hardy/

Substitute a mirror listed at r-project.org. Then apt upgrade or
apt-get install r-base.
