bug on compilation (PR#11395)

Daniel,

You are abusing the wrong list. You have a basic R question, or
rather,  a basic Unix/Ubuntu/Debian question.  Use r-help or even
r-sig-debian, please.

Either you run Ubuntu, or you run Debian, but you are very unlikely to
run both. As you say you run Ubuntu, why do think adding Debian helps?
It does not.
Jeebus, why?  All you do that way is to break your system!  Let the
package manager handle removal for you.
I cannot read your native language but it looks like a normal warning.
Instead of 'apt-get install ...' you could just have tried 'apt-get
dist-upgrade' and it should have found the new packages and upgraded
them for you. That works for many people.
$ sudo apt-get install r-base-dev

but I fear you will have other problems.  Maybe you should start at
the library or bookshop with a friendly book on Linux and Ubuntu.

Good luck,  Dirk
