I suggest you copy the package, give one the new name, and submit it.
After it has been accepted and is on CRAN, replace the other with a
something that says, "This package has been replaced by _______."
FYI, I did something like that. Prior to 2010 Sundar Dorai-Raj and I
created a package called "RSiteSearch". I asked this group for
suggestions for a better name. Someone suggested "sos". I do not
remember exactly how I did it, but it was roughly like what I just
described.
It worked ;-)
Hope this helps. sg

Hi Rolf, the first step of course is "just do it" -- have you edited the
title, and run R CMD check --as-cran? What NOTE/WARNING/ERROR did you see?

Currently the title line in the DESCRIPTION file for my kanova package
reads
Title: Pseudo Anova for K-Functions
and I would like it to read
Title: Quasi Anova for K-Functions
The reason I want to make this change is that I am writing, with a
co-author, a paper on the underlying ideas, and my co-author wants the
title of the paper to be "Quasi analysis of variance for K-Functions"
rather than "Pseudo analysis of variance for K-Functions" (as I
initially had it). My co-author is of course quite right.
I would like the title in the DESCRIPTION file to be consistent with the
title of the paper.
To get to the point: can I just simply change the title in the
DESCRIPTION file, or will there be repercussions in the form of NOTEs
WARNINGs or ERRORs that I will somehow have to deal with? (And if so,
how do I deal with them?)
Grateful for any advice.
cheers,
Rolf
