[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#863369: r-cran-tikzdevice: package unuseable: Graphics API version mismatch

[Esokrates]

Package: r-cran-tikzdevice
Version: 0.10-1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

It seems the package needs a rebuild against the latest version of R.
Installing the package and trying to use it in an R pogram the following
way:

library(tikzDevice)
tikz(file = "tikz.tex", width = 5, height = 5)

reports an External Graphics API version mismatch.

Removing the package and installing the same version using the R-interal
way of installing (install.packages('tikzDevice')), the same code works
just fine.
