The R-multcomp maintainer asked me to look into why it was failing to build in rawhide. When I looked into it, I discovered that something is broken in how R CMD CHECK --no-install works in 2.10.1. I couldn't tell you what is broken exactly, but I took the time today to package up all the Suggests (and their depchain) and tested the package without --no-install (and without --no-latex) and it works fine again.
I asked Orion (the R-multcomp maintainer) if he was interested in maintaining/co-maintaining/reviewing these new R packages, but he wasn't interested. In fact, he said he was more inclined to orphan R-multcomp.
Is there any interest in helping me maintain and review these new R packages in Fedora? The packages are already done, its just the reviews and upkeep that I'd need help with.
Here's the packages:

These are the R packages I made today:
coin, colorspace, ipred, lme4, mboost, mlbench, modeltools, multicore, party, robustbase, sandwich, strucchange, vcd, xtable
If any of these look interesting to you, speak up! If no one cares, I might just let R-multcomp orphan off, but if there are some willing helpers, I'll keep it alive with its new dependencies.

Hi all,
Even though I do not use them, I am always in favour of getting new R packages into Fedora (and/or keeping them in). I am therefore willing to help reviewing and/or maintain some if you like.
Let me know,
Pierre

Just as Pierre-Yves. So count me in for this.
Let me know,

It starts to be some time ago, but as I said I am willing to do the reviews and be co-maintainer (can I do the review and be co-maintainer?)
From the original list, red has already pushed xtable into Fedora but that's the only new one I see.
