Thanks again for this great book @b-rodrigues .
I just had the situation that I was working on a project with R version 4.3.1 but recently updates to ubuntu noble 24.04.
My aim was to use a Docker in combination with renv as recommended in your book.
When using FROM rocker/r-ver:4.3.1 not ubuntu noble but jammy (or was it focal?) was used, which is not optimal but would have benn okay. However this failed due to some curl problem. When i switched to FROM rocker/r-ver:4.4.2 the curl problem was gone, but another problem occured. I tried to start from a fresh ubuntu and compile R, but that was a painful experience. I then realized that rstudio actually has multiple combinations of linux distro and R versions.

I think this is a great resource which should be added to your book.
