[R-pkg-team] Bug#1039926: svglite requires rebuild under R 4.3.*

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Package: r-cran-svglite
Version: 2.1.1-1
Severity: normal

R 4.3.0 brought (once again) a new graphics API which requires a rebuild for
functionality that involves creating graphics device.  Once rebuilt the
following will again work:

    > getRversion()
    [1] ‘4.3.1’
    > packageVersion("svglite")
    [1] ‘2.1.1’
    > svglite(tempfile())
    Error in svglite_(filename, bg, width, height, pointsize, standalone,  : 
      Graphics API version mismatch
    > 

R Core decided again not to call this a breaking change, and I concur. We may
want to look into a graphics api tag for the next release. For now, a simple
rebuild should do.

Thanks, Dirk
