Hi Santiago,

thanks for your bug report.  I really appreciate hints like this.  I
would also welcome if those people creating PPAs would rather file
a bug report (or commit right to SVN and ping me for an upload).

Santiago, it would help me adjusting my idea about maintaining R
packages if you could have a look at

   https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=617296#96

Besides the fact that the hint from Dirk is not really the style I like
it I'm interested to learn whether users (like you obviously) might have
some suggestion to enhance the situation.  I think this should be
discussed at these two lists:

   Debian Science Team <debian-science-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>
   Debian Med Packaging Team <debian-med-packaging at lists.alioth.debian.org>

or any other place you consider apropriate.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
