Hi folks,
As expected of a new major release of R, there is a break in compatibility
for R packages. From the NEWS entry for 4.0.0:
Packages need to be (re-)installed under this version (4.0.0) of R.
This has two impacts on Fedora/EPEL.
1. Users who update to 4.0.0 will need to rebuild any/all packages
installed from CRAN.
2. Fedora/EPEL R packages will need to be rebuilt for 4.0.0.
For EPEL, #2 is less impactful (there are not that many R packages in EPEL)
but for Fedora, this is a pretty big lift.
I'm thinking that we'll only push this update to EPEL-8, F32, and rawhide,
but please, if you have input here, chime in.
Thanks,
Tom
