Hi, Regarding the open r-cran-xml bug in Debian, the package's upstream author wrote me the following text quoted below. And indeed, we now get the desired behaviour
> print(z<-xmlNode("tag",value="data without newline"), indent="", > tagSeparator="") <tag> data without newline</tag>> > which allows more user control over the output. I've adopted r-cran-xml and uploaded 0.99-3-1. Thanks to Rafael for maintaining it initially, and to Andrew for the more recent QA upload.
