Please (re)read the Posting guide, which says that this mailing list is 
for questions about the R language and not about compiling issues, and 
then go to r-sig-debian to look for more expertise.

FYI I don't have Ubuntu 20.04, but I had no trouble installing mclust 
5.4.6 with R4.0.1 on Ubuntu 18.04, so your problem is a specific 
interaction with your OS (or how you have your OS configured).
