Name        : R
Product     : Fedora 21
Version     : 3.1.2
Release     : 1.fc21
URL         : http://www.r-project.org
Summary     : A language for data analysis and graphics
Description :
This is a metapackage that provides both core R userspace and
all R development components.

R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.
R is similar to the award-winning S system, which was developed at
Bell Laboratories by John Chambers et al. It provides a wide
variety of statistical and graphical techniques (linear and
nonlinear modelling, statistical tests, time series analysis,
classification, clustering, ...).

R is designed as a true computer language with control-flow
constructions for iteration and alternation, and it allows users to
add additional functionality by defining new functions. For
computationally intensive tasks, C, C++ and Fortran code can be linked
and called at run time.

Update Information:

Update to R 3.1.2
Change /usr/lib[64]/R/etc/Makeconf from %config(noreplace) to %config to force it to be updated when upgrading.

Without this change, the TCL_LIBS variable can be set incorrectly. The old Makeconf file will be preserved as Makeconf.rpmold
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Fri Oct 31 2014 Tom Callaway <spot at fedoraproject.org> - 3.1.2-1
- update to 3.1.2
* Wed Oct 29 2014 Tom Callaway <spot at fedoraproject.org> - 3.1.1-8
- rebuild for new tcl/tk
- mark Makeconf as config (not config(noreplace) so that we get proper updated tcl/tk libs)
