There is no 'permanent' fix. It needs to be rebuilt each time R changes its
version string. It was my omission to not have done so once R itself changed
from 2.4.0 to 2.4.1. Will fix.

Given that the upstream author (CC'ed) no longer replies to my emails, I will
probably drop this package, i.e. Debian QA will be the new maintainer.

Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something.
