Fsck. I just made two uploads yesterday.
I'm sure that will break the builds as configure is likely to find g77 before f2c unless I tell it otherwise. [ checking ] Well I seem to do that explicitly in debian/rules. Let's hope for the best. Changed in debian/control: r-base (2.0.1-5) unstable; urgency=low * debian/control: For r-base-dev, switched from the black magic "g77 | m68k, f2c | not+m68k, type-handling" to "g77, f2c" as type-handling no longer allows this (Closes: #296287) This will get changed with the next upload. I changed the severity to minor as r-base-dev is just a courtesy depends package for local R package building and doesn't impact normal R builds or use.
