As the error is common against your _all three_ of your Ubuntu runs, you could consider the possibility that the events are correlated. Most often it simply means a (temporary, usually) network or server outage. I would wait, and then relaunch (which these days you can do just for the failed jobs). It is also worth paying attention to warnings such as Warning: r-lib/actions/setup-r@v1 is deprecated. Please update your workflow to use the 'v2' version. Also look at the examples at https://github.com/r-lib/actions/tree/v2/examples because '@v2' workflows are much simpler than 'v1' workflows.
Thanks to Zhian Kamvar and Dirk Eddelbuettel for encouraging me to look at the warning.
I replaced a few lined of my "R-CMD-check.yaml" file with the the "v3" and "v2" versions in the example in "https://github.com/r-lib/actions/tree/v2/examples" and deleted subsequent lines that I didn't understand, and I got an instant failure: It didn't run even one of the 5 tests. Then I did "git revert" with the version number from GitHub and changed several lines to match the example with the succeeding yaml code. GitHub Action ran and failed on all 5 platforms. I did "git revert" with that and changed "r-lib/actions/setup-r@v1" to "r-lib/actions/setup-r@v2". With that, R-release ran successfully on Unbuntu as well as Windows and macOS.
However, Ubuntu failed with devel and oldrel1, complaining, "there is no package called ‘rcmdcheck’".
