Hmm, I have no idea what that is supposed to say. :-/

Methinks that you are either pointing apt at a corrupted archive, or one that
had an upgrade in process. 

For what it's worth, I _just_ uploaded a new R version to unstable
(2.5.1~20070513-1), and I'd suggest that you try
 
As this works fine here (and for lots of other users, R is moderately
popular), I am downgrading the severity:

r-base-core is already the newest version.

(I don't use r-base as I don't need all the packages it pulls in on my

The following extra packages will be installed:

Or maybe your local setup is confused. You are not supposed to mix released
N (stable) and N+2 (unstable) at the same priority.  What is it that you are
trying to run?  Stable ("etch"), testing ("lenny") or unstable ("sid") ?
