Understood the hint (modulo s/lower/higher/) about tpu und changed
changelog target distribution to unstable.

I might consider uploading to unstable the proposed version (+Debhelper 7)
in any case.  This is suboptimal for unstable because R version is higher
there but I might check in my unstable chroot if it at least passes the
library(happy) check.  This enables us to be fast once Steffen gives better
explanation and is a good and reasonable update of packaging for unstable
anyway.

Kind regards
