* Package name    : r-cran-urltools
  Version         : 1.6.0
  Upstream Author : Oliver Keyes <ironholds at gmail.com>
* URL             : https://cran.r-project.org/package=urltools

  Description     : GNU R vectorised tools for URL handling and parsing
 A toolkit for all URL-handling needs, including encoding and decoding,
 parsing, parameter extraction and modification. All functions are
 designed to be both fast and entirely vectorised. It is intended to be
 useful for people dealing with web-related datasets, such as server-side
 logs, although may be useful for other situations involving large sets of
 URLs.


emark: This package is needed to package r-cran-crul (no misspelling, its
not curl) which in turn is needed to update the r-cran-rredlist package to
the latest upstream version.  It will be maintained by the Debian Med team
