But that would be against the wishes of R core, from the "Writing R
Extension" manual:

        Whereas you should feel free to include a license file in your
        source distribution, please do not arrange to @emph{install} yet
        another copy of the @acronym{GNU} @file{COPYING} or
        @file{COPYING.LIB} files but refer to the copies on
        @url{http://www.r-project.org/Licenses/} and included in the
        @R{} distribution (in directory @file{share/licenses}).

:)

Cheers,

        Berwin
