Bug#330085: r-cran-gtools: configure tries to use unknown option htmllists
What is this to do with me? This is NOT an R bug. The change referred to is in the unreleased R-devel version of R, and it is an announced API change there.

It was in fact you who suggested a while back that every installed package call R in from its postinst to update the html index, as it was Kurt who very recently suggested that I call /usr/bin/R and not R to avoid local builds of R in other locations. I.e. the code is configure) if test -x /usr/bin/R; then /usr/bin/R CMD perl /usr/lib/R/share/perl/build-help.pl --htmllists fi | This is NOT an R bug.

I understand that it was in official release documents, but I am pointing out that I called this a certain way following discussions with both you. It's a grey zone. In any event, it is only a minor nuisance and we will muddle through.
