Update: Got myself a working version of cairoDevice by doing the following:

1) At the bash prompt:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libgtk2.0-dev

2) At the R prompt:
install.packages("cairoDevice")

It would be nice if someone fixed the Ubuntu package to resolve that version mismatch. Thanks!
