Sure -- always happy to help the releases. But could you be a tiny bit more explicit and tell me what you want me to fix, where I need to upload, etc or I may get this messed. The changelog doesn't show me what I did wrong: r-cran-dosnow (1.0.6-2) unstable; urgency=low * debian/control: Added r-cran-snow to Depends (Closes: #700498) * debian/control: Set Build-Depends: to current R version * debian/control: Set Standards-Version: to current version -- Dirk Eddelbuettel <e...@debian.org> Wed, 13 Feb 2013 09:33:14 -0600 Are you asking for a build under a different R version? Couldn't you just make a binary NMU with a different Build-Depends? We have an informal policy to release r-cran-* packages _for unstable_. So I always encode the then-current version via Build-Depends. On Feb 13, that will have been R 2.15.2 aka r-base-core_2.15.2. "Upstream" for r-cran-dosnow has much weaker requirements. It would probably build on stable... but I frankly do not know where to upload to. The version in unstable has the correct control file.
