Well. I just built the RPMs to ignore the depedencies and installed them manually (force).
Not elegant but it works and still uses RPM.

Hi Allen,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I actually encountered this point of yours and that is why I found this mailing list.
On your solution, I did try putting 'export _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ = false; R CMD
check' in the spec file. But now, it fails again again doing a test that requires
foreach while building iterator.
Thanks again.

Hi,
have you been able to proceed here?
I suppose that the only real option is to proceed in several steps in a
kind of bootstrapping setup, first ignoring the suggests and the checks
and on a second round adding those back. Probably this is easier said
then done. :-)
