The base image (BASE_CONTAINER) of the elyra/kernel-r docker image is old and the version of R used in there is 4.2.2. More recent version of R is available that users would prefer to use. With the change the underlying Debian OS is also getting upgraded to trixie with latest security fixes.

do you need to update Makefile to pass hub_org os use a default value?

Thanks for pointing that out. I realise that HUB_ORG arg is not of much use because of its assigned value to elyra. I changed it to use fully-qualified name due to the fact that it needs to be pulled from quay.io.
