Possibly related to this, it seems that
https://cran.r-project.org/src/base-prerelease/R-latest.tar.gz
is not available any more.

This file was very convenient, because it pointed to R-RC, R-beta, R-alpha
or R-patched, as appropriate.

Our nightly "next version of R" builds [1] depend on it. Do you think
you can still create this file or link?

Thank you,
Gabor
