Package: dh-r
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'm starting to convert some of my R packages from cdbs helper to dh-r.
When converting r-bioc-biocparallel I wanted to turn the code to fix the
permissions of a file into

override_dh_fixperms:
	dh_fixperms
	chmod -x $(debRlib)/$(cranNameOrig)/snow/RMPInode.R

Unfortunately the variables known from cdbs helper do not exist in dh-r.
I think it would increase the acceptance of dh-r if these would be
available and could be used in the manner above.

Kind regards and thanks for the great dh-r tool

     Andreas.
