Re: [Fedora-r-devel-list] R 2.9.2 updates are ready

[Martyn Plummer]

Up until now we have been building our own R RPMS for EL4 and EL5 for
distribution via CRAN.  To be precise, Bob Kinney at Harvard (cc'ed) has
been building them. Lately I stepped in to rebuild the 32-bit EL4/5 RPMS
using mock.  

With R 2.9.1 and R 2.9.2 you have built EPEL RPMS for R at the same time
as the Fedora ones. Does this mean we can give up building our own?
 
Is it OK for me to grab the EPEL RPMS and put them on CRAN before they
get pushed to stable? 

Thanks
Martyn

Sure. It doesn't really take much time for me to do these additional
targets.

Sure, assuming you see no problems with them (and if you do, please let
me know).
