Description

Building Debian 10 image based on trunk causes the following error. The latest version of the testthat package seems to only support R 3.6.0+.

$ ./gradlew bigtop-slaves -POS=debian-10

...

#8 1310.4 Error: '/usr/bin/R -e 'pkgs <- c("devtools", "evaluate", "rmarkdown", "knitr", "roxygen2", "testthat", "e1071"); install.packages(pkgs, repo="https://cran.r-project.org/"); for (pkg in pkgs[pkgs != "devtools"]) if (!library(pkg, character.only=TRUE, logical.return=TRUE)) q(save="no", status=1)'' returned 1 instead of one of [0]

Debian 10 is not officially supported in Bigtop 3.3.0, but I'd like to support it as far as we can since its EOL hasn't come yet.
