Having Trouble Downloading Tidyverse in R

Hi I am New and having a bit of trouble downloading the tidyverse packages

Here is what I am working with : R version 4.1.1 (2021-08-10) Linux system I cant seem to get it to download on my desktop but was able to get it on the cloud version of R. I think Im missing something but have no idea what it could be. I have tried removing it but still nothing. If anyone can explain what I am doing wrong and how I can correct it, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Commands Used to download R:

echo "deb http://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian buster-cran40/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/r.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys FCAE2A0E115C3D8A
sudo apt update
sudo apt install r-base libnss3
get https://download1.rstudio.org/desktop/bionic/amd64/rstudio-1.4.1106-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i rstudio-1.4.1106-amd64.deb
sudo apt -f install

Here is the last bit of the Error

If openssl is already installed, check that 'pkg-config' is in your
PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH contains a openssl.pc file. If pkg-config
is unavailable you can set INCLUDE_DIR and LIB_DIR manually via:
R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars='INCLUDE_DIR=... LIB_DIR=...'

I figured out what I was missing. Typically the Errors will give you a hint as to what is needed to fix the issue so I just corrected the missing issue with in my terminal as per the following.

sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt install libssl-dev
sudo apt install libxml2-dev

Then in R

install.packages ("tidyverse")

This allowed me to install tidy verse on R with in a Linux system
